G75VX and Win 10 build 9926

First of all, it is running GREAT!

Okay, now thats out of the way, any of you using it yet? If it helps anybody, this is what I did.

I downloaded the Win10 iso, and I used Rufus to put on my usb stick(I will be using WinReducer next to tweak it, and can provide tutorial for that if anyone wishes). When I restart the computer, I hit escape right away to select boot device. I choose UFI and the usb stick that has the installer on it.

I do a clean install, wipe out all partitions and install. I finally caved in and am using my Microsoft account to login to windows(though there is a way to prevent you from having to type in the password to log in). Once Windows boots up, I checked the Device Manager to find that it had a driver for everything 🙂 Though, I still install a few from the G75VX downloads page, using drivers from Windows 8.

The ones that I used are:
Alcor Multi-Card Reader Driver 20.2.145.43581
Synaptics Touchpad Driver 16.2.2.0(setup does not work for me, i have to open WinWDF/x64/dpinst.exe)
Keyboard Device Filter 1.0.0.5
ATK Package 1.0.0031
ASUS Virtual Camera Utility 1.0.28

I have used it both with and without the following
Intel Chipset Drivers 9.4.0.1027
Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver 12.8.5.1000
Intel Management Engine Interface 9.6.0.1038

I use the most recently avail drivers from asus, but I can't say what version as I am under NDA on that

I do a reboot after each and every driver, and did the windows updates as well.

This thing boots up really quick, restarts quick, it runs great 🙂

I just installed windows 10 on my G75VX and there are some problems i ran into which I think anyone upgrading to win 10 should be aware of.
1) Bluetooth drivers I believe are not perfect. I have a bluetooth dongle and I have to restart my computer everytime I want to pair a bluetooth device after removing it.
2) Subwoofers dont work (It makes static noise) with the g75 default audio drivers and i have to turn them off to actually hear anything from speakers.

yeah, it is still a beast of a laptop, though a 750 would be nice too 🙂

I did a upgrade install over Win 8.1. Everything works well except the realtek sound. I get a high pitched screeching sound. When I turn off the enhancements, it works fine but the subwoofer does not work. Are you seeing this issue with the clean install?
Thanks!

what version of GPUTweak is that? I installed the windows 8 version and it caused a page fault. It wouldnt even boot into win10. I had to go into win7 and delete the gputweak folder to get win10 to boot.
