    Razer Blade 15 Advanced (RZ209-033) graphic card issue

    hi,
    this laptop works but temperature rise too much. I dismounted mb and cleaned well. There was a lot of dust inside.
    I think that there is a graphic chipset issue because when I power the machine I get this error:
    "the detected discrete gpu VBIOS is not meant for this system"
    This make me think that maybe the gpu VBIOS has to be re programmed.
    BTW someone already worked on this mainboard. Near graphic board there is Winbond flash memory that I think its stored the VBIOS.
    I attach some pictures and one of message error I get when I power on the laptop.

    I finished to assemble back laptop and apart this RED startup message laptop and operating system works fine.

    System shown correctly Intel intgrated GPU and NVIDIA RTX 2080 SUPER discrete card.

    In order to try to fix this error first of all I tried to flash GPU VBIOS with NvFlash64 utility and I was able to save the orginal BIOS and also program back with a downloaded identical BIOS.

    Now for Razer Balde 15 Advance the corrent BIOS is this one:
    VGA Bios Collection: Razer RTX 2080 Super Max-Q 8 GB | TechPowerUp

    Instead the loaded VBIOS that I saved is this one:
    VGA Bios Collection: Razer RTX 2080 Super Max-Q 8 GB | TechPowerUp
    but its saying is made for a Razer Blade Pro 17

    First with NvFlash64 utility I tried to install the right BIOS but it say that Subsystem ID is different so I installed succesfully the one of Pro17.

    I think (but not 100% sure!) that the warning issue is becasue I've to overwirte BIOS with the right first one even if I get NvFlash64 compare error.

    Before to goes on I already have done this:

    - operating system all updates
    - check Intel ME bios installed correclty to last varsion
    - updated machine BIOS to last v.1.06
    - updated Nvidia drivers to last version 32.015.7283.

    For reference I attach here a saved copy of the installed GPU VBIOS.

    Any help/feedback could be really appreciate.

      "the detected discrete gpu VBIOS is not meant for this system, press Enter to continue"

      Machine start and works properly. I was also able to update machine BIOS to last version 1.06.

      Thanks so much for help....

      Razer Blade 15 advanced Late 2019

      Hello, I bought a Razer blade 15 advanced with I7-9750h and RTX 2080 without Display. Seller said it works with external display. It arrived and I connected it to my Samsung TV. It gave me an external Pic with windows 11 start screen. But I had no Windows account so I removed the SSD and installed it in my other laptop to install windows 10. put it back in the Razer but from this time I never got an external pic. Can anybody help me to get back an external pic?
      BTW: I‘m sure the LCD-cable is bricked and not the LCD itself.

      Razer Blade 15 Gaming Advanced RZ09-0421 Laptop - No Display, External Screen Only
      by sikocan
      Hello Colleagues,

      I'm dealing with a perplexing issue on a client's laptop and would appreciate your insights. The user experienced a sudden screen blackout during regular use (not gaming), although the laptop continued to operate normally otherwise, with music playing and indicator lights active. An external display connected via HDMI works fine, indicating the display itself is functional. The device manager shows the Intel XE GPU as disabled, with Windows reporting a related error, while the NVIDIA RTX GPU operates without issues, even supporting gaming.

      Upon inspection,...

      Hi all

      Repairing a 2020 Razer blade advanced, 10th gen intel + 2080 max q. Originally had a destroyed charging port (soldered to the board type) which I've replaced and then found out it was missing the 20v rail which loops around the board.

      Found a 3r030 mosfet which was shorted gate to drain so replaced that and now have 20v rail, 3.3v, 5v but still unable to power on successfully.

      When powering on there's no activity at all. The PCH gets hot but nothing else. At this point I gave up last night to attempt again today with fresh eyes.
