    when you have your vga mode on optimus, do your leds alternate back and forth between the green/igp and orange/discrete? it's annoying. i'm assuming even when i'm just web surfing and what not, it's still using igp. and i'm not talking about the vga button, i'm talking about the status leds. anybody have any input or solutions for this? :confused:

    If its bouncing back and forth then something is accessing it every once in a while. Do you have a hardware monitor on there? or some other type of temp monitoring program?

    It shouldn't bounce like that.
