Dell Precision M6700 Owners Thread

Yeah, that's exactly what I did too and just won't boot from it.

 

I've just installed windows 10 on my M6700 covet with ips and screen goes randomly black or backlight is only part working of it, this is quadro driver issue? Any solutions I had similar thing on windows 7.

 

My install went without any glitches. So far, so good. Well t he icons look like I'm viewing it on a UHD display (tiny) but that's not really an issue for me. Just different.

On another note, anyone updated graphic card with the latest Nvidia Quadro drivers? I can swear the display looks more vivid. Again, not a displeasing thing.

 

If you did a clean install, premier color setting may got reset from a smaller gamut to default. Though AW user are saying nvidia/MS is killing their screen ~

 

I've tried 353.62 ODE and i have glitches like above. Most of times pushing power button helps sometimes it hibernates and pushing it again wakes up the screen from black/only backlight, sometimes i have turn off laptop to get screen alive again. There is no scheme with this screen problems it is random and very irritating.

Yes it its clean install, I didn't install premier color app, in nvidia control panel colours are in 10 bits mode.

 

Looks like I have to do a clean install of Win 7 before I can do a Win 10 update as I ma having some serious driver/OS issues... for a clean Win 7 install from my original disks or from downloading them from DELL, is there a particular order I have to install the drivers in?

 

Yes, 10 bit that must be it. There is a noticeable difference. I also like the new MS ability to adapt to screen resolution. Although you can still change it if you like

 

For the Win 10 update, are there any Win 7 drivers that should be updated right after?

 

My experience so far has been the GPU drivers are lost during the upgrade, but new ones will come down Windows Update the first time you use it. Otherwise, everything should carry over and work fine.
