HELP Vector 16 CPU/GPU Problems? Disconnecting USBs

I've had the Vector 16 HX AI A2XW for a couple of months and it's not too bad overall. However, some games that are usually either high in physic computing or high in graphics such as "The Finals" or "Arc Raiders" will at some point disconnect all my USB devices and I either have to reboot my laptop or close the game. I've solved this issue for some games by undervolting with MSI Afterburner but it does not always help. Especially since I like to stream and record as a hobby, this causes many issues. I've tried many solutions such as BIOS Update, Windows Update, Resetting Audio, Reinstall Drivers, Changing Performance Mode and none seem to work. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated, thank you for reading!

Msi user scenarios

I just got un update it removed silent mode and fuse with eco, now there are just 4 modes.

MSI Z16 A11 UET - Ghost touch after fall from couch

Hi..
Looking for help on how to fix issues with ghost touches on my laptop?

It started after my laptop slipped from my couch and fell from 50cm (2 feet) height on a soft carpet. I found it standing in this position /\\ Standing on the side of the palmrest and top side of the screen. I picked it up and continued watching a movie..... until i saw weird circles and lines....
the laptop did not reacted to mouse or keyboard actions. (on hindsight that makes sense)

A short google search made me aware that this behaviour also know as ghost touching is a thing for laptops with touchscreens..

I'm trying to find out if i can fix it and im curious if anyone has experience with this and found a fix. (a fix, besides disabling touch functionality in windows settings )

I see no visible damage on the laptops. Nothing bend. The frame looks solid,
Also the screen looks fine. No cracks, no weird flickering that could be related to a screen malfunctioning.
But when i position the screen in a 90 degrees angle (or smaller) with the keyboard, the ghostying starts. Opening the screen, >90 degrees, immediate stops the ghosting effect.

I'm curious what you think this could be. Does the touch function has its own connector? seperate from the videodata? Any other connectors?

Please let me know. Thanks :-)

HELP looking for alternatives of MSI dragon center

Device: MSI GF65 thin 9SD (MSI GF75 Thin – THIN.GAMING)

So here is the thing, whenever im trying to play EA FC26, the ea anti cheat is blocking it due to msi dragon center being too old. version being 2.6.2005.0601

https://preview.redd.it/ihr2zdz9b69g1.png?width=394&format=png&auto=webp&s=591739a89a271b29f6b3c64f6863bf7c6f5a1e64

couldnt find any latest version of it, tried installing the MSI dragon center (MSI Dragon Center Download Center), but it doesnt show me monitor features, it only shows me the screen RGB filter options.

i really need the monitoring options, where i can change the shift mode(Turbo,sport,eco etc) and also the fan speed to have better gaming experience. but as this EA is blocking it, i tried uninstalling it, and my system is heating up too much as cooler booster is not on. so im looking for any alternative options to adjust my fan speed or to make the dragon center work.

Thank you.

MSI has bad Quality Assurance

I purchased my MSI Vector A16 A8W. Ryzen 9 8940HX + RTX 5070 TI 140W. I bought this during Black Friday for 1299 USD (before tax). It has not been a month and my laptop is having an issue with their fan. my right fan (GPU fan? CPU fan?) is making a weird brrr noise. Not super loud like something broke it spins and spits out air. I cleaned out the fan using a electronic air compressor (max speed) and the turned it on and it still has the brrrrr faint sound. This didn't happen yesterday, but this morning my laptop is making that weird noise. Max Fan level I hear nothing, but normal fan speed I hear it. I hope nothing is broken, but damn first MSI laptop what a disappointment. Should of stayed with Lenovo. MSI in my opinion second worst laptop company after HP.

my laptop won’t charge, need advice

this is the laptop I have: https://www.msi.com/Laptop/GF75-Thin-10SX-GTX/Specification

I got my laptop in late 2020 and about a year ago my laptop‘s charging port started getting finicky. It worked somewhat if I found ways to apply pressure so that it fit into the port just right, but it didn’t work well and got worse over time. I tried buying a new charger and that had the same issue. I think it‘s an issue with the charging port, since it still could turn on. I haven’t gotten it checked out yet, but before I try to, is there anything I could/should do that could get it to charge?

"Switching to eco silent mode" keeps popping up over and over again when on low battery

As soon as my laptop gets to low battery I get the pop-up saying "switching to eco silent mode" literally every 5 seconds. How do I stop this?

Vector 17HX, Too hot on idle

https://preview.redd.it/reza5s2gdb9g1.png?width=1942&format=png&auto=webp&s=e21cafe268f0b7d10355c3c928dc6443dbdaafdb

Hi everyone,

During light use / studying (you can call it idle), my laptop CPU stays around 72–73 °C.
Under heavy gaming load, the CPU sits at a constant 95 °C.

A few months ago, I experienced several Kernel-Power 41 errors, I sent the laptop to a service center; they reported no hardware issues, performed general cleaning and maintenance, and returned it, the errors were gone but i wasnt quite sure that they were totally solved.

Since then, I have reinstalled both CPU and GPU drivers from scratch with DDU.

Do these temperatures sound normal for a high-performance laptop, or could there still be an underlying thermal or power-related issue?

Any insights would be appreciated.

Intel SST audio crackle / hum on MSI Vector 16 HX (Win11) – root cause & fix

I had an intermittent but severe audio issue on an MSI Vector 16 HX (Intel HX platform, Windows 11): occasional audio “crunching”, and twice a full audio lock where sound degraded into a loud continuous hum that only cleared after a hard reboot. No BSOD, no AudioSrv crash.

Symptoms

Audio crackle under load (games/video)
Rare hard lock → continuous hum
Event Viewer mostly clean
Reinstalling Realtek/Nahimic didn’t fix it
Intel Smart Sound Technology (SST) runtime device never appeared (only BUS + OED)

What I tried (summary)

Clean Windows install (issue existed before and after)
Full driver re-installs (Realtek, Nahimic, Intel SST via pnputil)
ACPI resets, power drains
BIOS “Load Optimized Defaults” None of the above reliably fixed it. Forcing SST runtime enumeration actually made things less stable.

Root cause (conclusion)
This turned out to be a firmware-level issue, not Windows or drivers.
The system exposed Intel SST BUS + OED, but never the SST runtime device. That left the audio DSP in a degraded, unstable state that could occasionally lock (DMA-style failure → hum).

Actual fix
Updating the BIOS to the latest version completely stabilized the platform:

Audio crackle/hum stopped
GPU and LAN issues that appeared after resets were also fixed
Intel SST runtime device still does not appear — but audio is now stable

Key insight: on this machine, missing SST runtime is acceptable as long as firmware is stable. Trying to force SST back caused instability.

Takeaway
If you have:

MSI + Intel HX
Windows 11
Audio crackle or rare hum lockups
SST BUS present but no SST runtime

Don’t keep reinstalling drivers or Windows.
Check for a BIOS update first — that’s what actually fixed it.

Reviews on the Stealth A16 AI+ w 5070TI AMD?

I can barely find any reviews on it and the price for it w AMD seems very decent. Can anyone give a review about it?

I am especially curious bout the fan noise and speakers since they are upfiring so should sound decent.

Vector 16 hx ai

Was mir besonders gut gefällt:

Extreme Rechenpower: Dank des Intel Core i9 (HX-Serie) und der RTX 40er Grafikkarte meistert der Laptop jedes aktuelle Spiel auf ultra-Einstellungen ohne Probleme. Auch Videoschnitt und 3D-Rendering laufen extrem flüssig.



Intelligente KI-Optimierung: Man merkt deutlich, dass die "AI"-Komponente nicht nur Marketing ist. Die MSI AI Engine passt die Einstellungen (Lüfter, Leistung, Beleuchtung) automatisch an das an, was ich gerade mache. Das spart Zeit und optimiert die Performance spürbar.



Brillantes Display: Das 16-Zoll-Display bietet eine hervorragende Bildwiederholrate und knackige Farben. Die Immersion beim Zocken ist durch das 16:10 Format und die dünnen Displayränder fantastisch.



Kühlung (Cooler Boost 5): Trotz der enormen Leistung bleibt das System stabil. Die Lüfter werden unter Volllast zwar hörbar (was bei dieser Leistung normal ist), aber die Temperaturen bleiben in einem sehr guten Bereich, ohne dass die Hardware drosselt.



Verarbeitung & Tastatur: Das Gehäuse wirkt sehr wertig und robust. Die SteelSeries-Tastatur schreibt sich hervorragend und die Einzeltasten-RGB-Beleuchtung ist ein optisches Highlight.



Fazit:

Der Vector 16 HX AI ist zwar eine Investition, aber er liefert genau das ab, was man von einem High-End-Gaming-Laptop erwartet: Pure Leistung gepaart mit moderner Technik. Wer ein zukunftssicheres Gerät für Gaming und professionelle Arbeit sucht, wird hier nicht enttäuscht.

Gpu temp at 87C

Im currently using msi katana a15 ai with ryzen 9 8945hs and rtx 4070. Previously i played cyberpunk while monitoring temperture using afterburner and at certain moment the gpu reached 87C with 96% usage and around 2500 core clock speed. Then the fps dropped from 90 to 20 and fans started going max speed and wont go back to normal even after i close the game and the temperature lowers. Ive been using it for around 1.5 years is it a thermal problem and should i get a repaste.

Should i buy the MSI Vector 16 AI HX 5070Ti.

Hey, i just bought a Hp Omen 16 Slim for $1200. it has Ultra 9 285h, RTX 5070(8GB), 32Gb of 5200Mhz ram and 1tb Gen 4 SSd, 1200p display, 144hz. it is good but i dont the the vram like it is a 5070 and still only 8gb?

And then i found this MSI Vector 16 AI HX Laptop for $1299 and omg the specs. It has an RTX 5070Ti (12GB Vram) and Ryzen 8940HX , 16Gb DDR5 5200mhz and 1tb gen 4, and a frikin 1600p display with 240hz.

It is good laptop and i am thinking of returning the OMEN one and buying the msi one but the question is look i am not going to be living in the us so the warrenty is like waste. i bought the hp one in the first place because i thought i would havve warrenty in my country and it also has brand value. should i buy this msi still?
