    Any idea how to disable optimus on this laptop? The BIOS doesn't have the feature.

    I'm a bit upset with a) the bloatware and b) the lack of features. I knew the hardware wasn't on par with the GX series, but I figured the BIOS would be.

    That said, can I disable optimus somehow, or flash a GX BIOS (sounds risky)?

    Thanks. Anyone else have this one? The 17" with BD.
