Hi.

Let's say I want to revert back to the original, stock EC.
How do I do that?

I flashed T17 version on a gt70 0nd with a 675mx. My gpu VDDC still drops from 1.0370V  to 1.0120V within a few minutes of running a heavy game/benchmark. This stops me overclocking as much as I could as it gives me a display driver failed error when the voltage drops. Can this be fixed using a VBIOS mod?

hi,
I own an MSI GT70 0nd 202US MS-1762
I have been facing massive fps drops in any game. i usually play CS:GO and BF4. and i experience the same problem in both games. I have tried tons of ways to fix this issue, but nothing has helped me yet.
i will list what all i have tried till now.
1. upgraded from win 7 to win 8.1
2. tried multiple versions of Nvidia drivers 320.49, 326.41 Beta, 327.23, 331.93 and the latest one too 332.21
3. Updated by bios from E1762IMS.10C to E1762IMS.10U
4. Tried unparking the cpu
5. tried emptying the Standby list using RamMap
but nothing has helped at all.
i have created a thread here on the forum with the problem details i am facing. posted a few screens showing the problem as well. https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=176114.msg1275586#msg1275586
one of the senior forum member has directed me here.
and i hope this can fix my issue.
i do not want to overclock my GPU even to the slightest extent, as i am happy with the performance the gpu gives me.
can someone help me upgrade the EC as i have no idea how to go about with the update. my laptop originally came with win 7 and i have currently upgraded it to win 8.1.

btw my EC version is - 1762EMS1 ver4.05

relfash to this one: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=162629.0;attach=10391

For flashing you can >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<,
mode 1 point to bios archive file
when preparation is done, reboot your computer and boot from your USB key,
then pickup option 2. proceed with update

If you have troubles booting from the USB key,
use Tool's "Fix My USB key" option, before the preparation of the USB key

got it. Thank you for the help and quick response.
The app was looking for the .zip file and i had to change it to .rar from the drop down menu. sometimes the brain does not want you to proceed without being stupid.
anyways i have done the update. now the EC version is 1762EMS1 VerT.16
I will check if this helps me and post the feedback here.

On an additional note i got 2 BSOD's using this app. hope the feedback helps.
1. If i close the command prompt application without selecting the file in the file browser, a BSOD pops up.
2. after the USB is installed with the EC, the application counts down from 10. and after the countdown a BSOD pops up.
both of these said "BAD_POOL_HEADER"

back here for the feedback.
THIS THING WORKED AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally fixed the fps issue. now the fps is very stable on BF4 and CSGO. thank you all for the help. just made my day.
on an additional note, can the mods rename the thread and add "FPS DROP FIX" to the thread title.
this fix has solved the prob for many users and there are a lot of guys having this issue with the MSI Laptop. renaming it to something related to the problem would help alot of the guys out there.
