Well the title says it. I got my hp g6-2005ax preinstalled with win 7 home basic. Then the upgrade offer for 699inr came and i upgraded it instantly. I did not do a clean install simply upgraded it. My laptop got buggy. The discrete gpu was always on and fan whizzed like crazy. There was no switchable graphics option. Also a lot of other bugs. So anyone got win 8 on this laptop please tell me how stable is your laptop. Also let me know the version of ccc if u have the switchable graphics option. I'm thinking of again installing win 8 but this time clean install.
