Disabled my iGPU on an MSI Bravo 15 B7E... now I'm stuck with a black screen

I think I messed up.

I have an MSI Bravo 15 B7E (Ryzen 5 + Radeon RX 6550M). I wanted to make Windows use only the dedicated GPU, so I disabled the AMD integrated graphics in Device Manager.

After restarting, the laptop powers on normally (keyboard backlight turns on), but the screen stays completely black. I also tried connecting it to an external monitor through HDMI, but it doesn't detect any signal either.

I'm guessing the display output still depends on the iGPU, so disabling it probably broke the display.


Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Buying supplies for repasting MSI GF65 Thin 9SEXR. Need advice🙏

Hello everyone! I have an MSI GF65 Thin 9SEXR (i7-9750H, RTX 2060) that hasn't been cleaned for uhh about 2 years I think. and the stock thermal pads are about 5-6 years old..(to be honest, I didn't even know about their existence until recently). It's overheating like crazy and causing massive FPS drops even in light games. I'm going to take it to a local service center for cleaning, but I want to buy all the materials myself beforehand to ensure high quality.

Based on some searches I made, I'm planning to buy: 1. Honeywell PTM7950 pad for CPU and GPU. 2. Upsiren U6 Pro (or similar thermal putty) for VRAM and VRM instead of traditional thermal pads, due to potential clearance and pressure issues.

Also, what sizes of pad and what volume of thermal putty should I get for this laptop?

Does this combination work well for the GF65 chassis? If there any better alternatives for thermal putty I would LOVE if you could recommend them. Thanks in advance!

MSI 63GF Thin – audio COMPLETELY stopped working

I was playing Counter Strike: Source on my Linux Mint partition. It completely froze, like the entire screen completely froze i couldnt even tab out so I held down the power button to turn it off and I turned it on again. When it turned on audio was completely gone. Both on my Linux partition and Windows partition. It still detects the Realtek audio device on both operating systems but it just produces zero sound. I tried reinstalling audio drivers on both but it didnt work. I tried completely draining the battery which fixed the issue in the past but it didnt fix it now. I tried plugging in my external speakers into the audio jack whivh also worked in the past but now it just doesnt detect them. I'm so pissed off at this and I have no idea what I should do and im tempted to just sell this piece of shit and buy a new computer

The backlight on the top rows of keyboard keys (Esc, F1–F12, etc.) flashes dimly when the backlight is turned off.

Hello. I have a Titan 18 HX laptop. Basically, the problem is as described in the thread title. It was working fine yesterday, but when I turned it on today, the backlight was off. However, the top row is flickering dimly. When I hold down the Fn key, the Esc through F11 keys light up brightly. I tried reinstalling the SteelSeries GG app, but that didn't help. The top row flickers dimly in the BIOS as well. An EC reset didn't help.

My MSI Alpha 17 suddenly starts dropping FPS and performance and fans run like crazy.

As the title says, after a short period of gaming the fans make alot of noise and performance drops, it's a new laptop too (I bought it 1 month ago).

Advice

I am about to open my msi thin 15 to clean the fan with compressed air. In most of the disassembly videos ive seen on youtube, they usually also remove the fan which is also connected to the vents. Although I am confident of removing the back panel, Im a bit worried I might do something wrong when removing the fan. Do i have to remove the fan or can I get away without removing the fan and just cleaning the propeller.

Possible upgrades to the heatsinks and internal fans for MSI GE76 Raider 11UE-046?

Hello, I had this laptop since 2023 and maintained it well, I did my last repaste and reputty in December 2025. Instead of going with the stock heatsinks and fans, in case it goes bad later on, what other products are good recommendations you have for my laptop?

thermal interface on a laptop

I'm going to replace the thermal interface on my MSI Thin A15 B7UC. But I'm afraid that there might be liquid iron under the cooler. Who knows what kind of coating it has?

problem with screen after waking up form sleep mode

msi vector 16 hx

Lately im having this problem whenever i try to wake up my laptop from sleep mode sometimes it would just be a black screen but i can hear the music in background and the only thing i can see is the cursor which seems to interact with the web page i left on when it went to sleep.

Sometimes it's even worse because the laptop would just restart itself after the black screen

But sometimes if i leave the laptop to go to sleep and wake it up again it would return normal.

Btw i already tried to disable fast star up, update the gpu driver, performed a hard reset on the laptop through button button and the quick driver reset doesnt seem to work.

I dont want to be paranoid but this problem seems to have started to appear since i updated the bios to the latest version E15M3IMS.117, can anyone with this version tell me if they are experiencing the same issue?

I also saw that one of the nvidia driver update fixed the issue where some screen would not wake up from sleep mode and i updated it and at first it seems to have worked but after a while the problem reappeared

Any suggestion?
