    I feel silly for asking this, but this card is not working on my laptop, and I'm not entirely sure why. The card came from an HP machine, but it fits fine in my laptop with my old 9800M GTX heat sink and into the MXM slots. Am I missing something? The disk I'm using for that laptop has no data on it, so I don't think it could be drivers that I'm missing. The laptop turns on, but the screen stays black. What's the problem?

    Historically you want to stick with sager/clevo cards but maybe if you found a sager/clevo vbios for the card it would work if you could flash it.

    Notebooks are very rarely plug and play even if everything physically fits.

    Ohhhh, that sounds very sad for me. Do you know of the easiest way to find the Quadro 3600m vBios for the D901C?
