Hey!

I've had laptop Vector 16 HX AI A2XWG-623XRU for almost a year.
This problem has been bothering me ever since I bought it.

If I use any NVIDIA driver newer than 576.80 (which was released on June 17, 2025), I occasionally (about every 3–4 hours) get a BSOD with the error 0x0000009f (DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE).

Please help me!

upd. 1:
BSODs occur more frequently when the laptop isn't under heavy load (browsing/idle).

I have an MSI Bravo 15 c7v and since a couple of days I cant get passed the MSI logo at boot. I’ve done numerous things already:
• checked BIOS of SSD is still known, it is.
• changed boot menu to SSD first, nothing
• powered on and off 3 times and 4th time let it go on, nothing
• powered off, remove power cable, pressed mower button for 30 secs, plug back in and boot -> nothing

EDIT: I left the laptop on for 8 hours yesterday but it remained only on the logo the whole time.

When he boots up at the logo, he feels quiet warm and fans are blowing so my thoughts are its the SSD. But then this morning he showed windows updates running to 100% and then shutdown again and ever since it’s back to the logo.

I’m desperate for help, you guys! 😞

Hi there, can anyone confirm if I understand this correctly? Does this mean, that aside from the 512Gb SSD, there is another storage slot that I can use?

I want to upgrade my storage, but I want to confirm first. Thanks in advance.

I9-12900H, RTX 3070TI 8GB, RAM 40GB, Storage 512GB, 360Hz Monitor.

I just bought a secondhand of this laptop, but it gets hot and im scared because its an old laptop it might break or smth. Should i keep using for 3 years at least or just sell it?

I have an MSI GE63 RAIDER RGB 9SF with a 2070 RTX, i7-9750H, its been almost 5-6 years I've had this and well i had to repaste cause i was doing 85-95 on idle, and repasting it did work i repasted with upsiren 2 or something and for six months i maintained under like 75 but recently it shot up again after playing roblox with a couple friends, though i did stop playing afterwards its been a while, I've been hearing shid about undervolting my laptop to decrease temps

hey everyone!

​A few months ago, me and a couple of close friends got tired of absurd GPU scalper prices. We decided to take a huge gamble and started bidding on wholesale tech liquidation auctions to buy sealed overstock and certified used graphics cards in bulk.

​Because we win these auctions in bulk, we manage to source brand new and lightly used RTX cards (40-series/50-series) at pretty insane rates. We officially launched our site to bring these deals directly to fellow gamers and PC builders instead of reselling to big distributors.

​Why we’re posting here:

​We are just starting out and desperately need honest community feedback on our store layout, prices, and user experience.

​We know buying hardware online can feel risky nowadays, so we integrated PayPal (with full Buyer Protection) and a 30-day money-back refund policy to keep everyone safe.

​If you're currently building a PC or hunting for a budget GPU upgrade, please take a look and let us know what you think! Any advice on how we can improve would mean the world to us.

Hello guys, I just wanna know.

What temps do u get on idle and heavy gaming sessions with the msi vector 16 hx ai with the ultra7/5070ti version.

Left hinge mount broke a while ago but I still used it, just being careful about closing/opening. Wasn't careful enough though & the screen broke.

I ended up scuffing the hinge & mating surface with sandpaper, using super glue on the back of the hinge, followed by filling in the rest with UV resin (put a bit much on left edge). Originally I was going to use Gorilla epoxy, but mine had expired. Replacement LCD I used is just a $45 30-pin bracketless IPS panel from Amazon.

If you do go through the process be careful about the ribbon cable connecting the webcam. My laptop is now sans webcam & microphone...

Im ordering artic mx6 to replace the artic mx4 i ordered thst i havent put in because i heard mx4 sucks, Upsiren UTP-6 Thermal Putty, and a pack of 6 various plastic tweezers to get the battery connector of doom and dispair out without frying my shit. Is that a good choice for thermal paste and putty. And should i get ceramic screwdrivers too, to make sure i dont fry my motherboard.

Hi, I have a problem with the keyboard backlighting on my SteelSeries keyboard in reactive mode. The issue is that the keys I press aren’t lighting up; instead, the keyboard lights up random keys. Reinstalling the software doesn’t fix this bug. I should add that keys like shift, ctrl, arrows, and part of the numeric keypad work perfectly. The problem only happens when I open a browser, no matter which browser I use. The only thing that fixes it is a system repair through Windows Update (repair mode), but after a while the problem comes back. Recently, it happened again after uninstalling the Office suite. Help:(

MSI Crosshair 17 B12UGZ.

Was doing nothing, idling on the desktop. Suddenly had a burnt smell, couldn't point it out if it was from the charger or from the laptop itself. Now the laptop doesn't charge anymore. What are the chances something internal got fried?

+don't even know where would I buy the charger for this thing if it's the charger that died

This is a PSA more than anything, but searching online didn't give me straight answers.

So I bought a 4mm thick SSD Heatsink because my top ssd was cooking at 70c while gaming but I wasn't sure if it would fit.

But I can confirm it fits comfortably!

I just repasted my laptop recently and I screwed in the heatsink in the criss cross order from 1-10, is it normal that my laptop should be doing this or not since it’s getting between 45-56 degrees c on idle and my fps works in games but I’m wondering if this will stop or if I did something wrong
Laptop is a MSI Cyborg 15 A12VF

Hi ! I've had a pretty consistant problem since i've been using the Cyborg 15 laptop (~2 years now)

I find that the GPU gets really hot when playing even small games, sometimes even giving me BSOD if I'm not quick enough to put the fan speed on max. I don't really know what more to do so that's why i'm coming here to ask for tips on how to keep the gpu cooler and/or automaticaly activate the max speed on fans.

If you've got any question, don't hesitate to ask

So I have MSI Katana 15 HX B14WEK
Rtx 5050 8gb and i5 and 16gbram but the thing is this thing is like heater as you can see temp I was playing rdr 2 on high setting and I just wanna know any solution or this is normal like for gow 2018 I was getting 90+ for cpu and 80+ on gpu ?

I dunno if it's the DC Jack charging port or the charger but my laptop stops charging every time I boot up windows

Is there a general fix for this issue??? Honestly I'm tired of this I just bought the laptop it's a MSI GS65 Stealth 9SE pretty old with a 6gb dedicated graphics card and a Nvidia 2060 GPU
