Since day 1, my wireless NIC has worked intermittently. Even now, I am currently connected to my wireless 2.4GHz network but it wouldn't connect to my 5GHz one? It has connected to the 5GHz network in the past so it gets a little worrisome.
I also have noticed that sometimes when coming out of hibernation that it does not recognize one of my M.2 drives. I have a suicide RAID setup so I am unable to boot into windows. The first time this happened I re-seated my M.2 drives and that seemed to fix the issue but alas... it persists. The fix now seems to be reboot 3-5 times and it eventually boots my OS.
The space bar on the keyboard is terrible it hardly ever works for me so i really have to smack it to make sure it gets through. That also just be my way of typing as i tend to use my right hand thumb for the space bar causing me to strike it on the far right of the key. Regardless... its annoying.
My big issue today is that after a resume from hibernation again it failed to recognize my M.2 drive but after a few reboots I was able to get back into windows 8.1 but now my wired NIC has disappeared and shows up as Unknown Device in device manager. I have tried to select a driver but none will work, even when I manually select the correct driver it says this device cannot start.
So I have emailed Sager (sagernotebooks) for the latest BIOS. Hopefully updating will fix these weird issues.
Has anyone experienced anything similar with their NP8651? And if so, what did you do to resolve the issue?
Here are some details on my laptop:
4th gen i7-4710HQ
3GB GDDR5 GTX 970M
32GB DDR3
Intel Dual Band Wireless AC 7260 AC (I have read issues with this model)
I forget what M.2 drives I have in there but I have 2 512GB + 1x 1TB 7200 RPM drive
