    Hello everybody.

    I have a little question for you guys.

    I have an Asus G50vt-x1 and I would like to remove Express Gate, which is easy, just format that partition.

    What I really would like to do is use the Express gate button to load another OS like Ubuntu, XP or Mac OSX.

    Is there a way to bind that key to load another OS. I've seen some mods on the LCD so maybe this could be possible.

    An even better way would be to know how to boot Express Gate from other boot loader like GRUB/grub4dos, so no need to power-off the notebook first, Express Gate could be selected at boot time as any other OS.
