    You should be able to upgrade to the P150SMA B0501 that's the latest as far as I know

    BIOS and EC yes, usually they are packaged together.

    Not doing the EC can brick your system.

    Speak to your resellers support team. It should come as a package.

    It's usually a good idea to contact your original seller rather jumping in head first. They can provide guidance, get you the correct POST logo, etc.

    Well i did upgrade my bios, but i did just use the clevo EC V 1.03.08 & BIOS V 1.03.11, just to check that it did work.
    It did work, but now i just get "microsoft basic display adapter" on device manager in windows 10, the bios sees the 780m card, i dont know what to do, i cannot install any nvidia drivers ect, so i guess i go back! :(

    1.05.01 should be the latest for EC and BIOS (better Win 10 support).

    As for your card: Is it the original card, or a replacement? Does the driver install properly under Win 7 or 8?
