    Hi guys, do you know of a place/store/etc that does tech support for gaming laptops?

    I got a 680M that came from a P370EM3D, I own a p170HM. I need to take it to a technician or someone who has a P370EM3D at hand, to flash the vbios to the version compatible with my laptop.

    It'll be a huge issue to send it back to the guy who sell it to me, to flash the vbios. He's pretty much far away.

    Or if any of you live nearby, in Nashville, and can help, I'll be glad to remunerate for your time. All I need is to find someone who has a P370EM3D Sager.

    Hope you can help me guys!

    Or maybe your original reseller will do it if you pay shipping?

    Xotic PC can't help me. And the guy that sold me the card doesn't know how to do the flashing. Never did. Looks like the hole I'm in is deeper than I thought haha.

    If I was not still waiting on my visa I could help but I can't just now. You could try searching for emergency bios recovery.

    That would work if you put it in the second slot yes, if you have the right heatsink.

    Thanks a lot guys for your help! Where are you Jasondcannon?

    I'll check if this vbios is compatible with your laptop and let you know.
