MSI GX620 + Vista Ultimate 64 + Turbo/eco mode + dolby..

Hi all,

I just got my GX620, and after taking in a few notes on things I liked and didn't like, I decided to put Vista ultimate 64 on it. I've run into two problems so far:

1) Dolby control no longer works and crashes whenever it is run - I assume this is a 64 bit incompatibility at the driver level.

2) My turbo/eco buttons no longer work. I have installed all of the drivers, including the SCM, but I can't get the turbo/eco buttons to work.

I really would hate to go back to 32bit as it would suck to loose as much ram as one does in 32 bit mode when the unit comes with 4gigs worth, I will if I have to, but I'd really like to keep my 64 ultimate on there.

Any tips and/or suggestions would be appreciated!!

 

I'll have to get back to you on #1, but my ECO/Turbo button is working perfectly fine. Make sure you have the CIR driver installed, then install the SCM afterwards. Remove your current SCM and install the one from MSI's website.

 

Thanks for the response - I uninstalled the SCM, reinstalled CIR, reinstall SCM from web and the turbo button appears to be working - although I still have to run something to determine if it is really OC'd or not.

I'm going to try to do a reinstall of the chipset drivers using what's on the website - I came across a topic somewhere on the net referring to an issue with intel updates fixing a problem with dolby CC and vista 64... well, we'll see.

Here you go: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=utility&maincat_no=135&prod_no=1529

 

thank you very much,
did you fix the problem with the dolby?

 

where did you get the dolby control bit from? i can only see the realtek drivers on the msi site.

 

Did you guys manage to install Dolby Digital properly?

 

Try running CPUZ without turbo and check your core speed. Then press the turbo while CPUZ is still running and check if your core speed changes.

 

Dolby Control v2.2.1

I did not test it on msi , try and report please

 

I just installed it on my 1722 ID running win7 x64 and it works. Just remember to run the installer as an Admin.

 

Thank you!

 

Check the Dolby Control function within Media Center it's great. allows you to adjust the sound options.

 

i have test it on GX620 ms-1651 with Vista x64 SP2 and it is working , i used winrar to unzip "dolby_control_2.2.1.exe".
those are the main installers inside :

DCC_v221_x64.exe
DCC_v221_x86.exe

i've used "DCC_v221_x64.exe" to install it.

you are welcome

 

Well it works fine on the MS-1722 ID1 (GX720) version. Windows 7 x64

 

Sorry to bring this thread back to life, but what exactly is the benefit of installing these?

 

Well the dolby can actually give more "umf" to your laptop's sub woofer.

 

More then the powerful equaliser in realtek?
