Uniwill 259

Note from MXM-Upgrade(24 january 2007): That's it, no more 7600's. We hope to replace them with a DX10 offering soon, frop us a line if you want to be first in line to give them a go.

Note from MXM-Upgrade (3 november 2007): The 7600 cards we currently sell feature mounting studs so Dremmeling the heatsink should no longer be required.

Note from MXM-Upgrade (11 december 2007): 7600 cards are currently not offered. Contact us if you want us to send you a mail if we have new suitable cards.

Project: Cebop Hel 950 upgrade Geforce 6600 Go to Geforce 7600 Go!

1.) General Informations

2.) The Upgrade

3.) Driver settings and benchmark

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.) General Informations

Notebook details:

Intel Pentium M 770 2,14 Ghz (2,24 Ghz in high performance mode)
1 GB RAM 533MHZ (540 MHZ in high performance mode)
Geforce 6600 Go mit 256 MB Ram
(VGA Memory Clock 598.5 MHz VGA Core Clock 375,3 MHZ)
HD: 100 GB / 7200 upm / 8MB Cache
OS: Windows XP Pro SP2

I used the program from http://www.pbus-167.com/ "Notebook Hardware Control" to set the cpu voltages down! Because the notebooks overheats at normal setting in High Performance Mode!

Multiplier	Default	min. Settings *2.)	Optimal Settings (high Performance mode)
6	0.988	0.716	0.732
8	1.068	0.732	0.764
9	1.100	0.780	0.812
10	1.132	0.812	0.844
11	1.180	0.844	0.876
12	1.212	0.892	0.940
14	1.276	0.988	1.052
16	1.356 *1.)	1.116	1.196

In High Performance Mode goes the temperature over 95°C and so the notebook turn off by self!
May be instable!

2.) The Uprade

2.1) Remove the screws from backside cover!	2.2.) Remove the screws from the heatpipe	2.3.) Remove the screw from the card and the blue heatpads carefully! You need it later!


2.5.) The new Card has one chip, who is 1 mm hihger as the other ones, so you must modify your heatsick	2.6.) It is esay to modify the heatsick, you only have to mill off 1mm	2.4.) Remove the 6600 card and replace it with the 7600 Card, use the screw to bolt on!


2.5.) You can use the old blue heatpads or new ons with 1 mm of high!	2.6.) Paste the heatpipe and bolt on the screws	2.7.) Close the notebook and ready to start :)!
- of every ram-chip (4 x) - of the GPU (1x) - of the two silver-chips (2x) - of the Chipset (Mainboard) - of the cpu use heatpaste ( remove carefully the old before )

2.7.)At next i have found a little problem: I turn on the notebook, but nothing is displayed (black display, only background light) ! if i switch to internal graphics card and start again, the display shows sometimes "nvram Check”&”08E" after that i turn off and switch to Geforce and start again, so it works! Or i press “Strg+Alt+Entf” several times for restart, so it works again This problem i have sometimes by turn on the notebook! if any one have a solution, please mail me!
