    GPU doesn't exist (driver problem? hardware problem?) and a sensor problem or something else?

    Just wanted to give an update: It was a motherboard failure of some sort. I had sent it in for an RMA because of what everyone told me. Tests run for several days by the company that sold the laptop to me would have the system haphazardly shut down. Not sure what part or anything was causing...

    GPU doesn't exist (driver problem? hardware problem?) and a sensor problem or something else?

    Very interesting. It's that serious? I don't know how this stuff works. I'm genuinely surprised to have a physical hardware problem. I will say that that because I've never had a computer experience a hardware issue in the ~20 years of playing with computers. So, what do you suggest I do on the...

    GPU doesn't exist (driver problem? hardware problem?) and a sensor problem or something else?

    I understand, but there's not much I can do about the power limiting. Nothing. I can only "rev it down" by using a different power plan. That's what I did. There's also a fan issue where the fans don't seem to be "very responsive". I asked for a BIOS update but I was turned down for one. What...

    GPU doesn't exist (driver problem? hardware problem?) and a sensor problem or something else?

    It's definitely not clogged with dust. I can tell you that with certainty because I personally opened it up. Just how much dust can get into a 2-month old laptop? Enough to screw up the cooling capabilities? And regarding drivers, Clevo/ProStar/Sager do not release drivers specific to any...

    GPU doesn't exist (driver problem? hardware problem?) and a sensor problem or something else?

    I tried DDUing it many times. Running Unigine's Valley in DX9 mode crashes it in seconds, but on DX11 mode it crashes after a few minutes of running. I just get a TDR 141 error and that a "hardware error has occurred". Then the whole system attempts to shut down, but never goes into a BSOD...

    GPU doesn't exist (driver problem? hardware problem?) and a sensor problem or something else?

    I see. Very well. I'm waiting on them to green light the process after having sent them return address info and all other stuff. Once the ordeal is over, I can post back when I get a response from them as to what went wrong. I'm dying for a confirmation that this wasn't a driver issue.

    GPU doesn't exist (driver problem? hardware problem?) and a sensor problem or something else?

    Also, in idle with just the browser running (it does this even at the BIOS screen), this is happening. Sometimes, if I use the "wrong profile" (i.e., performance instead of entertainment), the fans just stay at 2k RPMs. Sometimes, the fans are completely shut off on the GPU side. And other...

    GPU doesn't exist (driver problem? hardware problem?) and a sensor problem or something else?

    No problem, I shall post them here. This is what's happening now: Previously, sensors would turn on/off. The problem we're trying to figure out is if there's a hardware issue, an incorrect/incomplete Windows install, or a driver issue. The PC itself has been used for only two...

    GPU doesn't exist (driver problem? hardware problem?) and a sensor problem or something else?

    I was told from SysNative to come over here and ask about what's happening with the sensors because Martin (that's the name they gave me in the thread) can tell me more about this. Please refer to these two posts and the screenshots in there (they both have HWiNFO64 screens in there)...
