    Hi all!

    I wondering if the latest Clevo P570WM supports 880M? I just installed two 880M in my 570WM which had 780M before but when I try to install the notebook driver (340.43) it tells me that it dont support my hardware. My BIOS also tells me that the MXM slot is empty but GPU-Z tells me that I have two VGA cards installed.

    Do I need to do something with the INI file like you do when you install 780/880M on the Alienware M18x R2?

    P570WM3 doesn't support the 880M in 3D mode, yet (Clevo is facing some trouble there).
    You can click the link in my signature and use the regular P570WM BIOS to use the GTX880M without 3D until they get their act together.
