Steinar Lundemo Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 (edited) Hi! I have a quanta KN1 (6600 go, type II), but the graphic performance is not as good as it used to be :) But I have understood quantas have their own "unique" mxm slot? And the second question: What gpu do I eventually to choose from? Edited July 19, 2006 by Steinar Lundemo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the second question: What gpu do I eventually to choose from? The mechanics are not a problem, but Quanta apparently uses some SW/Bios protection. Basically, currently nothing goes.

Thanks ice-tea :) You are the guru! Nothing new in this case? But is there any way i can contact quanta with this "problem"? And maybe but cards from them? >Dark messiah of might and magic< is just around the corner, and I want more eye-candy :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice-Tea Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Nothing to report, sorry. I ám working on a 7600 Type II (and it looks like it's getting closer) with a 'normal' vBios. So if it's only the vBios that's barfed up, this may work. But it's NOT for the coming month or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steinar Lundemo Posted August 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Ok:) Thanks for the update. Ill check on the frontpage for details about the 7600 when you fix it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3DChipset Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Nothing to report, sorry. I ám working on a 7600 Type II (and it looks like it's getting closer) with a 'normal' vBios. So if it's only the vBios that's barfed up, this may work. But it's NOT for the coming month or so. I wonder if people with the Quanta MXM cards are willing to flash their cards with a normal BIOS, say a standard desktop BIOS. I just wish we can get MXM cards with standard reference BIOS's. Imagine getting someone with a Quanta MXM to flash it with a standard BIOS and it worked? Then that person could flash Quanta cards into normal reference MXM modules and then sell them to us! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steinar Lundemo Posted May 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 hi. I have been abscent for a while, so I'm just wondering if there's a hope for my quanta? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice-Tea Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 Well, yeah. A 7600 was shipped to a costumer and he reported it worked. Unfortunately, there was a mechancial issue that kept the card from being correctly mounted. I got the card back and made some changes on it. Stupidly enough I didn't test the card before sending it out again. To make a long story shor: it did fit but it did not work which was most likely because of a incorrectly implemented change as the card was malfucntioning on a 'normal' MXM notebook as well. Since then I changed t suppliers for this card and this should solve the mechanical problem altogether. I also was able to drop the price a bit (to 250?). Now I'm only looking for someone to test and write the guide :) Ice=Tea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steinar Lundemo Posted May 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 thanks for the update. If I am lucky, i'll swap my laptop with my parents laptop (Santa rosa with geforce m 8600 512mb card:)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
