bios 3.06 #10

Closed freakedenough closed 1 year ago

freakedenough commented 1 year ago

there is already a new bios 3.06 but unfortunately, it ruins usb video output once again on both usb c ports. with 3.05 at least the bottom port works. due to the malfunction in 3.06, there is no hdmi video output when using the docking station too.

That sucks... I will add that note to the new bios file. Thanks for creating the issue to let us know.

Have the same problem, is there already a release date for an update that fixes this problem?

i could resolve it with a bios reset on the exit page (load defaults), save and exit and then pressed the reset button for 10 seks (fan should run at 100% when doing this automatically)

Very nice, that worked for me too, thank you very much!

I noticed that you can no longer set the TDP in this bios. I installed an operating system for retro games and want to lower the TDP so that the battery can be used longer on the go. I really don't know why this important function was taken out, that's a huge step backwards! This function was also available on GPD Win 3! Is there a way to unlock this feature again?

yeah, GPD for some reason remove the TDP options from all the BIOS variants after 3.00. So if you would like TDP options from BIOS you would need to downgrade the BIOS to 3.00 and use that instead but you won't have none of the bugs fixes from newer BIOS that GPD did afterwards, it sucks but that is all you can do.
