Hello myvivre, unfortunately I'm not experienced enough to figure out how to hot plug thunderbolt, but if you really need to use thunderbolt device, you can plug them in before you turn on the laptop and they should show up like they normally do. As for "EFI_1", have you changed your bios...
Can you check if you have secure boot disabled? Turn on csm as well. You need to replace efi on your harddrive. Go into windows, download

And load EFI sector on your macos drive. There will be a EFI folder, replace the whole thing with my EFI folder.
If it still...
Only when I'm using IPGU and Nvidia card at the same time. So my laptop screen is driven by IGPU, and I can connect it to an external monitor and use the Nvidia card like a regular computer.
Not much, thunderbolt hot plug is not working and I'm having some issue with dw 1560 wifi card. Other than that, p71 is probably the only laptop with discrete graphics working without gettingg into bulky gaming laptops.
I'm glad it worked out for you. I figured out a new method that allows you to use both igpu and nvidia gpu at the same time. Not sure if it's something you need.
It's unlikely they are using mxm design on p73 let alone p53 since they are trying to appeal to the slimmer design market. And new rtx cards draw too much power without maxq design to cut back the tdp.
Thanks for replying, I managed to get my Nvidia GPU to wor. But the problem I'm having right now is that my brightness control is not working at all. I can't seem to make my display built-in. I'm on High Sierra 10.13.6. I heard brightness is broken since 10.13.3 and I'm not sure if there is...
No, you can't. The problem is not the vbios itself. The VBIOS in the BIOS is completely fine. The problem right now is that MACOS, much like GPUZ, can only read VBIOS from EEPROM. So when you have a laptop that put a lot of devices info in a single EEPROM, MACOS has no idea where to look for the...
That's interesting, my friends had p50 and p52, both reporting unable to detect EEPROM when using nvflash.
I have attached a tool to verify vbios rom. Can you drag your vbios rom into #Nvidia_ROM_Info.bat inside the folder and upload a screenshot?
Also, since you flashed your vbios, have you...
