Request: AlienWare M5550 2.06W Bios Unlock to Re-Enable the DVI Out after MXM Upgrade
#1
Hi guys,

I have an Amilo Pi1556 and some time ago, the pre-installed nVidia go7600 died.

I replaced it with a Quadro FX 770M and everything is working perfect except DVI output.

At the beginning I thought the problem was the bios and I changed it to Alienware 2.06W
No luck. I kept it though because the Quadro is operating at a little lower teperatures.

When im pressing FN+F4 the screen blinks but unfortunately no signal from DVI out !
Also another thing I don't undestand, is that when I'm connecting the laptop with HDTV via DVI, I can pull out the EDID info from HDTV !!!

I'm using Windows 7 32 bit
nvidia Driver version: 285.62
nVidia vBios version: 62.94.3B.00.06
System Bios: AlienWare m5550 2.06W

I tried also different nvidia driver versions.

I think its system's Bios issue because I found a nVidia 7600 from another Amilo
and quess what, the DVI out worked again !!!

Come on guys, do your magic spells...
