    How does the command center (especially CC 3.5) work under W10? Any known issues?

    When last I was using the preview it was working fine but that was quite awhile ago. It should be good to go, I didn't experience any problems with anything on 10 that was running smoothly in 7 or 8.

    Anyone get M17X-R4 and Optimus to work ?

    BTW : I did get those drivers to install, they simply don't do anything mind you with the 970M or 980M GTX yet. Seems Optimus still doesn't work.

    Anyone know another way to use an M17X-R4 and 900M series ?

    The drivers are working for me. The install process for win 8.1 drivers work nicely.

    hello everyone, i am now running windows 10 insider preview. :)

    all 8.1 drivers worked including the modded infs from J95.

    EDIT: installed directly in dedicated mode.

    every driver I have now, is installed and working no issues. So, windows 10 seems to work great ! Though its annoying to navigate cause some things are new, and take getting used too.

    Cortana is a bit of a hit and miss. But anyway, dedicated mode is where it's at for me.

    looks like windows 10 insider preview isn't going my way since it would make my AW17 boot to a black screen from a cold boot :(
