I downloaded the nvidia driver options and i overclocked to 700/1080 and everytime i reset my laptop it resets o.o. anybody know a fix? i also checked yes to load saved settings on startup

Hmmm, I had this problem with my old m11x, I think it has something to do with the fact that it's optimus enabled. This is just a hunch but I would say that since the laptop switches which card is it's primary the settings also change.
Have you tried MSI Afterburner? If I remember correctly it worked for my m11x -

MSI Afterburner is an overclocking utility much like Nvidia's, but gives you a bit more freedom and accuracy. For example, you can alter voltage, desired temp, and also force it to run settings at launch...and it usually does it better than Nvidia's.
On my Desktop for example, I have the voltage set to 1.0 v for my 580s and also told the program to increase fan when the cards reach 75 Degrees+ to any speed in order to either lower them or keep them to 75.

im not a computer guy though what settings should i use for my m14x O.O

That you'll have to ask some1 else unfortunately, My m14x hasn't arrived yet

With the NVIDIA tools, I use 765/1080.

Well it should get hot, it's under a lot of stress.
How hot does it get? If it's under 85 C, you're fine. -

75-80 is perfectly fine. I play a lot, and my temps reach a little above 80 if running Crysis 2 or something. It's only if you start to reach 90 or so that you should be concerned.
If unsure, get a laptop cooler. -
ha, maximum, my card is at 830, yep, and my temps are usually between 70 and 77, but i have had it reset on me before, to 590 and 203, it was a driver issue, update fixed it

But still, temps usually aren't an issue until you reach high 80s and 90s. Then you're too hot. It will still run, it's just not good for the battery.
Alienware m14x GPU Overclocked settings keep on resetting?
