Additional context

No response

Finally got around to setting up a bootable Windows install using Ventoy's VHD boot feature, and here's what I found so far, values gathered from RWEverything.

Notes

Name	Address	Values Seen	Extra Notes
Webcam	0x2E	off = 0x09, on = 0x0B	N/A
Webcam block	0x2F	off = 0x0A, on = 0x0C	N/A
Fn/Win key swap	0xBF	left = 0x00, right = 0x10	N/A
Battery Mode	0xEF	max = 0xE4, medium = 0xD0, min = 0xBC	N/A
Cooler Boost	0x98	off = 0x06, on = 0x86	MSI Creator Center has no dedicated setting for cooler boost and instead ties it to the fan speed setting, with auto being set to value 06 in the EC
Keyboard Backlight	0xF3	full = 0x83, half = 0x82, on = 0x81, off = 80	N/A
Speaker mute led state	0x2C	off = 0xE0, on = 0xE4	N/A
Mic mute led state	0x2B	off = 0x88, on = 0x8C	N/A

Sensors

CPU temperature address: 0x68
Battery charge address: 0x42

Not certain

• Super Battery
• Fan Modes

Hi, thanks for the research.

Does Creator Center have settings for "shift" or "user scenario" modes? Can you screenshot them?

You forgot about shift modes, look closer on 0xF2 - "shift" and 0xF4 - cooler settings when changing "shift" or "user scenario" modes

[SteelT1]

Yes, Creator Center does have settings for "user scenario" modes.

High Performance

address F2=C0, address F4=00

Balanced

address F2=C1, address F4=00

Silent

address F2=C1, address F4=10

Super Battery

address F2=C2, address F4=00

One thing I noticed is that when the mode is set to super battery, value 80 is set at address F3.

[glpnk]

F3 is keyboard brightness, and for some reasons MSI power off keyboard backlight on it

[glpnk]

Can you additionaly check high performance mode. When you select it, gear or similar icon might appear, so I'm inerested in fan curve mode

[SteelT1]

Options available for fan speed

This also seem to have fan curve settings for GPU even though it's an iGPU.

[glpnk]

I have only igpu too and have 2 menu. But on latest update of MSI Center (not Center pro) they hide GPU menu

[SteelT1]

Made a mistake in the earlier comment listing the modes, and F4 for silent was supposed to be 10

[glpnk]

Please check output of F4 on fancurve mode

[glpnk]

Also, please check address 0xD5 after changing user scenario in app

[SteelT1]

F4 is set to 80 when set to fan curve mode is set to advanced, otherwise is set to 00 when fan mode is to auto, and cooler boost seems to retain the value of previous, so switching from advanced to cooler boost will leave F4 set to 80.

Changing user scenario in app doesn't seem to set D5, it's always at 00 no matter what mode.

Thank you, that's all I need
