    Funny how this laptop is pretty much problem free, but when everyone downgrades to windows 7, a gajillion problems appear.

    Just try reinstalling the driver. Or disable energy management. Idk.

    Did you turn it on after installing the drivers (Fn + F5 I believe)? You have to do it a few times because there are multiple modes that will disable all wireless interfaces, enable Bluetooth only, Wifi only or both.

    The screen flickering issue also occurs with the factory Windows 8 installation as well.

    Go in the nivdia panel and disable auto GPU switching? That could be a solution.
