    I have been having blank screen/freezing issues when using the AMD GPU on rare occasions. It usually happens after unplugging and starting windows with the AMD GPU on batteries. I have tried all updates from HP/AMD but only have marginal improvements when using AMD 11.5 drivers. Anyone else notice this on theirs by chance?

    Have all updates including F.15 BIOS....

    Edit: Just uninstalled AMD drivers and a blue screen appeared. Something about atik****
