m57ru Downclocking with 8800 GTX Help Please :D

Hello all.

I have been reading through the forums for a solution in regard to my gpu downclocking without using the standard drivers ( 167.43)
In doing so i have confused myself even more.

Is there anyone out there who can give me a straight answer?

I am running a 8800m GTX on the m57ru under Vista x64.
The bios is the same when shipped, .07.

I have never really needed to change the stock drivers, as all the games i played on it ran great. Warhammer Online is the only game i have issues with on the stock drivers, hense why i tried to upgrade.

I have tried many drivers with many different .inf, but they all seem to downclock my gpu.

I hope this all makes.

Thank you in advance

Any help would be very much appreciated.

 

1.00.08s fixed downclocking issue, that's what you really needed.

 

Here's a link to the newest bios version direct from clevo: ftp://ftp.clevo.com.tw/ALLBIOS/M57xRU/57RU_11.zip

This should fix your issue

While you're at it, grab the 177.92 drivers from laptopvideo2go

 

Thank you very much for the quick responses. I really appreciate it.

Is there a good guide on how to flash the bios? i have downloaded the file within the link.
If no guides, any advice?

Just not sure where to start
Sorry for this guys

Regards

 

what theriko gave you is rather complicated, try to PM Gophn or email sager and have them send you the .iso file, all you need to do is burn it on a CD via Nero, restart your computer and follow the instruction.

 

I came across this from DoX.

I am just struggling to find the bootdisk file as the link within the guide that is supposed to download "flashcd.zip" isn't there anymore.

Is this guide a good start for me to try? given that i can get the correct file to make the bootdisk?

regards

 

Any idea's on how to create the bootdisk guys so i can flash the bios with the bios that theriko provided?

Im desperate here hehe

Thanks in advance

 

zfactor has a good guide for using a usb stick here
