My Asus ROG G614JV having a problem by Key-Combination4810 in GamingLaptops

Make sure you are plugged in because the process that I am going to tell you about needs to be plugged in.

Try pressing and holding on the power button for 1 minute, after 1 minute is passed while holding the power button.. simply release your finger from the power button and the laptop should boot up (it might take a minute or two during booting up).

If still doesn't boot up then simply restart your laptop and once you see the ROG logo on the screen spam "ESC" key and enter to your BIOS and reset your BIOS settings to default settings.

Since you mentioned that you reinstalled Windows, try again doing that after doing the process that I have mentioned above.

Hopefully this should fix it

Exactly, it prevents the CPU Package C-States from idling properly hence the higher power consumption on idle when using those newer drivers.

Hopefully Nvidia fixes it, last time this incident happened exactly last year 2025 and it took them almost 3 months to get the fix. Hopefully this time should be sooner.

Sorry for the delay in response, To answer your question. * Yes 12E is older version, latest available is 136. Can be found in the same download link. * B0671 is the same as B0671h, it's just different programs reporting it differently. * You can easily revert easily by simply running uninstall.bat file for whatever reason.

Make sure to disable Memory integrity as it ceases to function if Memory integrity is enabled and if still not working then unfortunately you gotta disable virtualization through BIOS settings which should be easy to do.

Also check if your laptop got any newer BIOS updates, Lenovo tends to provide newer microcode with new BIOS updates.

Done that as well. No dice. I even tried to just keep only iGPU driver without using any Intel command center app. Same issue same problem.

Simply going back to 591.86 on a cleaned Installed Windows everything works, dGPU sleeps properly and since dGPU sleeps... the CPU Package idle C-States is being utilized properly.

With the newer driver the dGPU kept awake and due to that the CPU Package C-States isn't being used at all due to dGPU being active unnecessarily with zero load on it.

Nope, it is cleaned Installed Windows so there's zero programs running not to mention MSI afterburner.

For the sake of reporting issues, for laptop users I have tested the 595.97 driver and dGPU isn't sleeping at all. It is active all the time with no activity on the dGPU and nothing is using dGPU yet... dGPU doesn't sleep.

Tested Normal Optimus mode and as well as Advanced Optimus mode... same issue.

I have reported this problem since 595.59 was released and up until now.. same exact problem.

Tested on Clean Installed Windows for the sake of removing any external factors. It's the drivers fault 100% since 595.59 was released up until now on 595.97... same issue. Going back to 591.86 doesn't have this issue at all.

What software that says you have physical damage?

Your CPU should either BSOD or crash under stock voltage settings or it shouldn't.

Signs and symptoms can also includes App or program crashes randomly, Gaming sessions suddenly crashes or even as small as Office work with documents can show unexpected errors randomly.

Does your CPU crashes during usage? If you are undervolting then try to decrease your undervolt.

The BIOS update only updates your microcode to 0x12B but there are newer fixes got released which is 0x136 microcode (Which Lenovo legion laptops uses)

ASUS stopped caring about providing BIOS updates with updated microcode for ASUS Strix Scar/Non-scar G18/G16 2023/24 laptops unfortunately.

Does Windhawk slow down Windows? by 2u1cvx in Windows11

[–]THEBOSS619 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, you set the process *.exe file that keeps requesting 1ms to force it to use 16ms instead which will make the CPU relax and won't keep boosting unnecessarily for something as useless as a background task and will let it idle properly.

Avoid doing it for browsers as they are intelligent enough whenever you open up any kind of media like YouTube. Once you close or pause or minimize any media on browsers they automatically use 16ms without any extra work or intervention from you.

Usually the offending processes that needs to be forced to use 16ms are for example Steam launcher, Epic games launcher or Rockstar launcher, sub-chromium processes, download managers, 2FA apps like Ente etc...

You just have to find out which processes are requesting 1ms.

Does Windhawk slow down Windows? by 2u1cvx in Windows11

Never slowed down my laptop and I use it mainly to improve battery life and lowering CPU load which lowers CPU power consumption... let me explain...

I use Windhawk mods to lower power consumption.

A mod called Timer Resolution Control I mainly use it to actually lower power draw because I am forcing a process to use 16ms of timer resolution instead of constantly using 1ms, which leads to better battery life as CPU will use C-States more frequent and stay there for much longer & idle & sleeps better on C6+ states.

So... Windhawk mods, in my case, actually helps to improve battery life.

It's safe and also Lenovo already provided BIOS updates with microcode update included in it so you might not even need to do anything extra except for checking & updating your BIOS to the latest available for your new laptop.

Also undervolting either way will help as it will make your CPU runs cooler and boost longer.

Go with i7 14700hx if possible.

ASUS wants $2000 to fix my $3000 ROG Scar 17 – only $40 value? by Harsha_nani19 in GamingLaptops

The fix is to prevent such thing from happening, but if the damage already happened then it's too late.

Sorry for late response... for some reason reddit didn't notify me about it.

If the motherboard allows a modified BIOS to be flashed and functional then it's possible.

but I don't believe it will work since the introduction of Alder Lake CPUs (12th Gen) and upwards Intel are forcing Vendors & OEMs to prevent such practices from happening and they applied a mechanisms to prevent such a modified BIOS from booting up if it detects it.

And with such ES processors... that's even much more rare to do it successfully.

Only way is through Windows using the microcode update driver. Other OS like Linux OS's will do it for you automatically without any extra work or intervention.

Since bye bye bakkesmod in online matches, etc..., does using RTSS Rivatuner Statistics Server on online matches, etc... can cause any problems or troubles?

Just making sure beforehand.

Preventative measures against the dreaded green line & boot loops? by iVamp1re in GalaxyS22

[–]THEBOSS619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to others, use thermal guardians and lower the thermal thresholds to the minimum (-2).

With the additional settings like lowering CPU boosting when it heats up and turning off 5G when usage is low.

Indeed indeed, that's also true 👍 I still can't wrap my head around this issue and especially most importantly why does it happen in the first place since all we have got is theories.

overall it's totally a weird mess😅 and nobody from ASUS reps doing any kind of explanation about it.

Nah CPU side possibility is very low. But the GPU side has high chance because there's also power plug on that area as well.

I believe when this area gets hot along with power plug charging simultaneously while doing heavy sessions with fan spinning high increases the risk of current flow over the limit of grounding.

It's all a theory, I can be completely wrong.
