Official Coffee Lake Refresh Thread/BIOS for ALL Clevo Laptops - RTX CARDS NOW SUPPORTED

Cooling HS won't be an issue, this is a compatibility only question. I will do whatever it takes to build proper cooling.

I believe another member from Russia had installed an rtx 3080 in a clevo laptop a few weeks ago if I have time tomorrow I'll try to find the thread

 

You can easily mod a T shaped heatsink for it

And also I believe that a 3080 will work anyway, only inf mod will be needed.

 

Btw @KKthebeast, how did that 1080 died? Artifacted or just died?

 

I mean that was the P870TM. You'll need mod the MXM slot etc for the older DM.

Clevo really screwed up for the first gen owners. Many changes come right after the old DM models.

To be honest. after I did the mod to the DM I am not feeling that screwed anymore. Yet again I am speaking only for myself because I had the tools and know how to do the mod. The only thing missing for me right now is a proper firmware to support all that.

 

No artifacts. Pretty sure it was death by liquid metal but... It started to run over a year after application. Was playing a game, got 2 soft freezes, alt+tab fixed on win 11 dev. Hard shut down. Then no boot, no fans, no post. Just white flash on LED power button, prior to that, I would get the occasional monitor flicker, or quick flash of a black screen. Once or twice a day.

No visible damage nor Weird smells. Attempted to recover it by blowing it out with 180psi air on the compressor. Lots of rubbing alcohol, I may throw it in the autoclave and/or perhaps bake it? Suggestion?

Still had that SLI setup so I was able to isolate the bad card. Swapping slots, single boot, no SLI cable, and with and without the power cables plugged in.

That dead card (which was in the master slot) prevents the system from doing anything. Although I did run the heck out of it, OC and Prema provided vBios'. Plus we'll over 2300 hours of modding fallout 4 and 4000+ of 3DS Max building assets.

I have the in between model KM, does the MXM slot match the DM or the TM. (Also there is an official upgrade kit for the KM to the TM)

TL;DR does the KM need to be modded like the DM?

Jep, but this should never been needed in first place.

Nope. The older DM need some more works as you can see in the linked thread I posted above.

 

Just any update, now getting Game crashes with the 2nd GPU. best guess. windows 11 Build 22000.132 & direct previous version is murdering the 1080 GPUs with this dsanke BIOS. I would stay away. Feels like days from death of the 2nd 1080. Not sure what is happening here.

Note: 1st GPU died playing Dying Light, the 2nd is dying playing Horizon Zero Dawn.

Research suggest either Failing GPU or bad drivers. Drivers have been reverted. the chances of 2 working GPU's both failing with in a week after what 3 or 4 years of solid performance feels like a double lightning strike.

These are the exact same Errors received before the first card got nuked.

Nvidia Drivers:
471.41
471.68

Used DDU v18.0.4.2 and NVCleanstall v1.10.0

 

If you look at it that way then yes, Clevo did screwed us with the original DM.

 

Unfortunately the only proper way to get rid of LM under the GPU chip is rebaling, because LM does not stick/dissolves to alcohol or acetone. Furthermore LM may also adhere to the solderbals beneath the chip.

 

Hi. Who have/maked modded bios for p775tm1 for install hybrid CPU (mobile version in socket 1151 like QQLT QQLS and other series)

 

Dsanke mod bios for p7xxtm 9900ks 128gb

 

This bios support cpu like this

 

This bios support all 1440 cpu

 

Keep in mind that Dsanke also stated that memory controlers on those CPU are not great and if no boot is probably because of RAM speed incompatibility.

 

Getting the heatsink to fit will be the biggest worry with that.

 

Hi @dsanke
When do you think that bios for the Clevo P870DM will be able to OC more than 4 cores in bios? (for example if one upgrades to a 9600k / 9700k)?
Also we need bios compatibility for the DM owners who have done the mod, meaning who upgraded the original DM to Pascal and RTX.
TM like display support for the older DM.

Also a Gsync version including the things mentioned ahead would be nice.
Thank you.

Also @Prema, maybe if you reconsider to make a good deed for us the ones with original moded DM like you did for @Mr. Fox mod bios back in the days, would be grateful.

 

This is a stab in the dark, but I am in desperate need for a PB71EF-G original bios. Doesn't have to be modded, but I just need the dump in .BIN or .ROM format.
Would be forever grateful if anybody seeing this could upload that for me

These are unfortunately not in .bin or .rom format, unless I'm missing something.

 

Does your laptop start or not? Or do you need a BIOS file to load with the programmer?

 

It doesn't boot, currently it's stuck in a bootloop with a black screen. Yeah, I need a BIOS file to load with the programmer, that's correct!

 

I have separate cooling system for my p775tm one for gpu and one for Cpu. I think it will be easy
the main thing is that the cpu works normally/property

 

The heatsink is designed to fit a normal socket with the usual z height.

 

Marked in blue the necessary files, 11-BIOS, 12-EC

 

Oh maaaaan. Does that mean I can just rename it to .BIN and use that? Holy s***, I feel so stupid now.

 

Yes, just rename to bin or rom

 

Why did you need the bios in the firs place? What happened to the laptop?

 

It's stuck in a bootloop with a black screen after some BIOS tweaking. So either it's just corrupt or bricked. At the moment I'm not quite sure.

 

Did you reset cmos? Did you launch with one memory bar?

 

Yes sir, I did all that stuff. I managed to flash another bios to the chip via the programmer (after some minor issues), and everything went OK at it verified correctly. However, the laptop is still showing the same symptoms... so I don't know man. Maybe it's bricked permanently?

It's bootlooping, with a black screen. When it's running the keyboard LED is on, and if I press Fn + 1, the fans go to max since that's the hot key for maximum fan speed, so it seems responsive in some ways. But I dunno.. any clue?

 

I don't think that the laptop is completely brick, you just need to restore the BIOS

 

Vbios video cards were not touched?

 

What was configured in BIOS, RAM?

 

So.. great news. It's BACK! You were of course right, I just needed to find a way to restore the BIOS since none of the traditional methods worked. In the end, I am not completely sure what fixed it. I tried programming 3 different versions of the BIOS to the chip, and they all behaved the same way, still stuck in boot loop. I went for a walk, and when I came back, I decided to try the RAM swap again (I had tried this already 3-4 times before programming the chip), and this time it started booting, and then immediately rebooted into the popup saying that BIOS had been reset.

I got into Windows, and flashed the latest BIOS version and now it's just working... which is such a relief. I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction regarding theel .BIN file. That was driving me absolutely crazy!

 

Hello, today I bought a Clevo P771DM-G and seller said there was flashed a modified Bios from Dsanke. And an I9-9900k will be supported. Is it this bios from the thread?

 

Yes, it is the BIOS porting with p775tm from Dsanke

 

At the moment I‘m running an I5-6600 with an MSI 980m in this device. So now I can buy an I7-8700k for example and that will work?

 

Yes,But you need a processor pinmod before installation

 

Pretty cool, I9-9900T/KF KS and I Don’t know....and the Xeon CPU‘s will also work?

 

Yes, excluding Zeon processors

 

Very nice. Thank you for the infos.
Maybe one more question.
I have also a Clevo P751DM2-G with I7-6700k and GTX 1070 in Clevo format. There I can also install this Bios and can go for an RTX 2080 GPU?

 

Not this bios, each model has its own bios mod

 

No, not that bios. But from the first post from the google drive folder?

 

Yes,But there are many in the archive bios and you need to choose for your model

 

Ok, and do you know how to do the pinmod? I can‘t see the pics from the first post anymore.

 

Sorry, I downloaded the folder and there are the pics.
