    Hey forum,
    I finally got my G73 two days ago and I'm loving it. Been playing Arkham Asylum and Blur with no issues at all. I just had a few questions. Is it alright to leave my laptop charging for 16 to 24 hours continuously? Does it damage the battery in any way? Also, are there any updates at all that I should download? I've heard that the ATI Drivers cause quite a bit of misfortune but should I upgrade the BIOS? And finally, the one problem I found with this laptop is the backlit keys. They turn on during startup and go away. When I press the button on the top left to toggle the settings, all it does is turn off the blue lights for the 4 buttons and then turns them back on. Can anyone help with this? Thanks in advance guys!
