-->*OFFICIAL: MSI GT725 Owner's Lounge*<--

It should be F2, can't remember off the top of my head. If you do not have issues with the notebook, it's probably best to leave it alone. Don't mess with it if it's not broken, yes?

 

could anyone recommand a good driver cleaner other than Driver Cleaner?

 

Yea, ill probably leave it alone for now. Just wanted to knoe also if any GT725 owners have updates their bios yet to the new 1.0S

 

Sup bro, you dont like driver cleaner?
Maybe try driver sweeper? Ive used it before mainly to delete nvidia drivers. I think i like driver cleaner more

 

I have nothing against driver cleaner, I just wanted to know if there were other reliable dc out there as well. driver sweeper you say? ill try that.

 

installing 9.4 was a success!! thanks Tester. rep+

 

Smiter, didyiu download the 9.4 package 42mb or just the 9.4 driver itself? 20mb

 

the whole package

Tester's step by step instruction is good and easy

 

Okie dokie. Just makig sure, cuz the whole package contains CCC, display driver and something else. And theres another one just the driver itself. Which catalyst are you using? 9.4?

 

yes, the information center shows 9.4

 

Ok. Thanks man. I guess if im coming from factory CCC and drivers, after i install 9.4, my CCC and driver will be 9.4

 

hmm, i tried installing the drivercleaner but it says drivercleaner registration and asking for serial number and something else.

 

I tried searching everyehere to dl the drivercleaner but it says i have to purchase it. Meh, I ended up buying it anyway only 10 bucks

 

Got 9.4 Cat.

No overclock I got almost 9600!!! 3dMark!

 

WOW, For some reason I cant even use 3dMark06, right when it starts, it says the driver has recovered something like that.. Right when it starts 3DMARK06 where their on the spaceship, it freeezes right there and then it will say something the driver has recovered.. argh

you should have download from Tester's link. The Correct Installation: #1

If you download from his link, there is a second fold that helps with Driver Cleaner keys.

my guess would be the video drivers. are you sure you updated to 9.4? I had this similar problem when i ran 3DMark06 and 3DMarkVantage.

 

this is why i avoid using driver cleaning and why i avoided 9.4. people noticed a spike on recovery errors on 9.4 on www.rage3d.com catalyst forums. i would probably revert and install dna 9.2 or stock 9.3 (which has the yummy cpu/dependant game fps boost). Its in my humble opinion if you wipe the modified settings for your card made by msi that ATI is clueless about it is an invitation to instability. But there is no proof on this and this is just gut feeling without absolutely no evidence to back me up. (Other than i don't have vpu recovery errors)

 

Hey smiter, yawp, it says 9.4. I followed the instructions but thats what happened. I couldnt even run 3dmark at all. My computer would freeZe up. So what i did i downloaded 9.2 dna. Followed instructions installed 9.2 driver and cat. Now everything is welldone. On my driver cleaner i deleted ati/atiinstallmanager/atihdmiaudio/cccc. Been great so far.

What i dont understand, the first time i installed 9.4 i did not have any pro blems using the 3dmark and i had no errors.

I reinstalled 9.4 just because i wasnt satisfied enough and i had something saying , something is not working. So i unimstalled then installed again the proper way. Then after that, thats when problem started.

 

hey redlance, i just uninstalled 9.4 and driver cleaned ccc/atihdmiaudio/atiinstaller/ati.

Now i installed 9.2dna. Now its perfect. I could use 3dmark06 again no recovery driver errors whatsoever.

When i get home from work, i will test everything again. If it doesnt. Ill probably do a recovery from factory and start from there.

Question: how do we do recovery without doing it from the dvd. Is there a recovery setup from the desktop?

That is so true about the spike on recovery errors for 9.4. I read that somewhere also.
