checking the temperature of my HD7970M... Alienware M17x r4

Hello!

I have the problem written in the title... I can't verify anything about my HD7970m (two external programs (Afterburner, gpuz, CPUID, hw64, etc.) and Catalyst program center... If they work, they will only check the intel HD 4000)

temperature, the fan speed, clock, frequency, etc... nothing! seems that the hd7970m hangs this information!

I read in the other site, it depends on the outdated cause drivers

I tried to update the driver from the website of AMD, but I can't install it because "material (maybe because it's an alienware laptop) is not compatible with the AMD driver."

So I tried to update with the driver found in this site... and I installed it without a problem... but the problem is still there

anyone has a solution for my problem?
thank you for the petience and the kindness
(sorry for my bad english)
bye
Danilo

Hi Baron204,

I appreciate your patience. I suspect that GPUZ does not detect the card from AMD. You may need to uninstall the app GPUZ. Flash the BIOS from the Web site and then restart the system, install the latest version of GPUZ and then add the AMD card and check.

However, you can also consult the following link for AMD card functionality.

  • Sounds coming from my headphones and speakers at the same time - Alienware M17x R4

    I have a rather annoying thingy with my laptop. When I do something on my laptop where noise is involved ( play games , play music , etc. etc. ) and I have ear plugs / headphones inserted , the sound is coming out of both my speakers and my headset.I do not know how long I already have the problem, I discovered it today when I took my headphones off for a moment.
    
    Do any of you know how I can fix this? So that if I insert my headphones , the sound just goes through the headphones and not through the speakers at the same time. I Googled for a while now but I cant find a way to solve it. (Im not a PCs / laptops expert)
    ...
    
    I use an Alienware M17x R4 with Windows 10.
    
    I have already tried to update the drivers , remove and restart to reset them but nothing seems to work, PLEASE HELP!
    ...
    
    Thanks in advance.
    

    Hello. Please post your problem again, because half of your text has been cut. You may need to type it instead of paste.

    Try to switch to the native Windows audio driver.

    1. open Device Manager (found in the Control Panel, or type devmgmt.msc in the search box).
    2. develop the 'audio controllers, video & game' and right click on the Creative Labs Recon pilot.
    3 Select this option to "Update driver software".
    4. click on "Browse my computer for driver software".
    5. click on "Let Me pick from a list of drivers on my computer".
    6. put the "Show compatible hardware" check box if not already checked.
    7. in the list of devices, click on 'High Definition Audio"(native driver).
    8. click on "next".
    9. in the update driver warning box, click 'Yes' (the driver).
    10 restart the portable computer if you are prompted. If not invited, so no need to restart.
    [To return to the Recon pilot, do it again but reverse steps 2-7 names].

    If you have only the symptoms with one of the drivers, then the other is at fault. If you have the same symptoms with two audio drivers, then it is likely not a driver problem, maybe material.

  • Think of the GPU for Alienware M17x R4 upgrade

    Hello

    I plan to upgrade the GPU on my Alienware m17x R4. Currently I have a Nvidia Geforce GTX 660 m, but I'm looking to possibly go to the 680 (or perhaps a more powerful if there is one for Nvidia cards).

    I just had a few things I want to clarify before committing to anything whatsoever. First of all, my warranty would allow me to upgrade this component or it would be zero if I did (I heard various things about it, especially as you can, but depending on your region for the most part. I live in England and I think I'm ok but just want to double check).

    Second, so far, I'm having little luck finding graphics cards for laptops for sale online. I was able to contact dell about buying one of them directly (If Yes, who is better to ask?) or are there other places I look for them?

    Thank you very much in advance guys!

    Bobby

    Hi Bobby,.

    The 680 m from NVIDIA is one of the good GPU right now. The warranty on the computer will stay as it is except the video card replaced (a video card will get a separate guarantee which is quoted at the time of purchase).

    You can message NataliaatAW or use the link below to contact Dell UK. They can help you in the purchase of GPU:

  • R4 SERIOUS Alienware M17x adapter issues

    I had the typical Alienware M17x R4 "connected load does not," since I bought this laptop. I spent almost $3 k on this thing, and I've been through THREE Dell OEM 240 Watt adapters because of this problem. These things are expensive, like $100 a piece. Whenever I have buy a (I have more warranty) the problem goes away for about 2-3 months, then comes back. He arrived at the point where it's good now I write this on 70% battery, and I can't get it fixed.

    Usually, when I boot it says "the card is not taken in charge, blah blah blah, please press F2 for boot menu"

    And I usually get this screen:

    Usually I would disconnect and reconnect my adapter in all 20 times until he finally said a/c Adapter Type: [240W]

    but it is blocked to [Unknown] once again, and this time it isn't give.

    I tried all the recommended methods.

    1: I emptied the power to remove adapter, battery, and freezes for a minute, then plugging power back. I did about 6 times, and it always starts up an adapter not recognized.

    2: I tried to unplug and plug the adapter cord

    3: I tried to use different ankles

    4: I tried to reinstall the BIOS A12 several times, does not

    5: I tried uninstalling the driver for ACPI compliant battery check, still nothing

    6: I tried to run ePSA assessment of seed, which tells me that this:

    That my battery is charging to 255 Watts instead of 240 Watts.

    7: I tried to replace my battery and my card. Several times. 1 warranty, the rest of my pocket.

    8: I tried to let the computer stay off for a while, cool completely.

    9: I tried to update all my drivers.

    I am completely out of options, the only thing is to possibly replace my motherboard, which would be ridiculous that this is going to be long and costly. I'll probably just have to take my business elsewhere I got extremely poor support just because my warranty has expired. I won't pay $300 for another year of warranty, so that they can work on the setting of a defective product.

    I just want to know if you have any suggestions where to go from here? If it's fixable?

    If not, what other phones would you recommend that would not have this problem?

    Hello

    It seems that you tried all recommend them troubleshooting procedures for this type of problem. We believe that it is a problem with the motherboard, since you've already tried to use different adapters. For this type of repairs, we recommend that you check with ztronics.com.

  • Alienware M17x R4 Support

    I'm having a problem with an Alienware M17x r4. My daughter was in the middle of a PC game, and he is just off. Before turning it off, she said his battery was about to die, but she had a few minutes of life. She first thought it was just the battery, so she hooked up and we have nothing. I noticed that the green light on the power cord was not on so I unplugged the power cord and plugged. The light going on, and then it will slowly go away. I bought a new charger and plugged. The blue light until I plug it into the computer. The only way to get the light back on is to unplug the wall and plug it in again. The light stays on as long as I don't plug it into the laptop. I read about this on another site. Someone said it was the motherboard. Is this true?

    Unfortunately, so it is my daughter's cell phone if it was something funny in the days before, she said. I remember the fan if extremely hard, the other night (that was a first). The laptop is on, but she was not using it at the same time. She used again at night until it no longer works and said that happens again. I checked the fans to see if they were dirty and they weren't too bad. Them cleaned anyway, I'm not sure if it really solved the problem of fan until I can put it back on.

    If this is not the motherboard, what else should I check before I have pay fortunes to fix? I bought it refurbished almost 2 years ago for about $1,300. You know everything, just not if it should be fixed or not, but I'd not really to buy another if I need to.

    I tried troubleshooting and sought a similar problem here before posting but could not find one. Sorry if this is a duplicate question.

    Thanks for your help!

    This looks more like a case where the video card is dead.

    It is a common symptom in our computers. When the charger goes dim when you are connected to the computer, it's probably a problem with the video card.

    We have only on workstations as well.

    I hope you find this information useful.

  • Why the temperature shows on my watch always different temperature on the watch of my husband when they use the same application?

    Why the temperature still showing on my watch shows a different temperature than on my husband watch when they both use the same weather app?

    Hi Jodie

    If you are each using the weather app (which is included in the framework of the iOS and watchOS), the following steps can help (followed by each of you):

    • On your iPhone, in the weather app:
      • If using anything other than the current location (which is included by default), make sure you have each added to a common location / city.
      • To add another location, select the icon «+»
    • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: My Watch (tab) > weather > default City > make sure you have each selected at the same location (for example: place of current residence or Mount Laurel).
    • On your iPhone, go to: settings > privacy > location Services:
      • Ensure that the location service is enabled;
      • Make sure Apple Watch is face value while it helps;
      • Check that the weather is set to always;
    • On your iPhone, go to: settings > general > background App update:
      • Check that the bottom App Refresh is enabled.
      • It can also help to activate the setting for the weather.
    • For optimal performance of your watch, keep the Bluetooth and Wi - Fi enabled at all times on your iPhone:
      • iPhone: settings > Bluetooth - on.
      • iPhone: settings > Wi - Fi - on.
  • How can Qosmio G30-126 - I check the fan speed?

    How to know the speed of the fan? I have try several programs like "sensor hw monitor" & "fan speed" but it's not watch everything think about the temperature of the CPU just fan speed.

    Where is the problem and what I need to do?

    Hmm... Why you want to know the speed of the fan?

    The fan speed will be automatically controlled and you can t change this or manually control. You can change the method of cooling between performance and battery optimized in Vista power management. Did you check that?

    In addition, you can clean the laptop using a jet of compressed air as Akuma written. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.

  • Possibility to control the fan and the temperature under Linux

    Hi all.

After a brief search, I installed lm-sensors, and leave the settings by default yesterday reported temperature was 54 degrees. Today the same tool report processor temperature of 32 ° C when I went away and 50 ° C now, after 32 minutes. I was not be able to check the fan but as far as I can see the fan does not work. I would be really grateful if someone could tell me.

    2. What are the possible limits (non-hazardous)

    As you know Toshiba doesn't support Linux and doesn't offer solutions for this.
    In my opinion, you should visit some Linux forum and try to find a solution with Linux experts.
