I've got an MSI GE76 Raider 10UH. I tried windows 11 about a year ago and it was totally broken. Graphics switching was broken and it bluescreened constantly. Is this issue fixed for MSI laptops with optimus graphics switching and 10th gen / RTX3xxx series?

What is the purpose of this application? Basic system integrity? The issue I'm having was documented in the MSI forums and was confirmed to be a driver issue that needed to be resolved between MS and MSI. I'm not the only one who experienced it and I know how to diagnose hardware

#

I'm looking for someone who can speak to the specific state of QA/QC of win 11 graphics drivers on this hardware and whether or not its stable

Have you tried it?

#

It'll answer the above questions

#

Also you probably will need to enable TPM 2.0

sullen harness
#

Yes, it meets the reqs. It did the last time I tried to install too

#

But MSI and/or MS still had huge issues with drivers working properly

#

Lots of people have downgraded, myself included. I just want to know if they've made it stable yet

torn monolith
#

well the first question is what are you trying to get out of Windows 11?

#

I use it at home but at work I use 10, at the end of the day, just stick with 10 if it's stable

I want the nags to go away

#

nags?

#

you can de crap ify that

#

I will also lose support for a couple of critical work apps 6 mo before 10 goes out of support

torn monolith
#

Read it through and you can run that script to do it

#

is this a work machine?

sullen harness
#

I'm an contractor, there is no distinction

torn monolith
#

oh

#

so you have to run Windows 11?

sullen harness
#

Programs I own that I need to do my job will only have deployments for win 11 within a year. Trying to get a jump on it now

#

I guess I'll just end up buying a new laptop

torn monolith
#

without knowing the model number, it's hard to find what works or doesn't work

#

On paper, that machine is about 2 years ago and there is a TPM on there

#

and hte cpu is suppor4ted

#

can you post the link with the windows 11 issue that you read?

sullen harness
#

yeah, windows 11 installs and runs, but the graphics switching is broken

torn monolith
#

can you turn that off in the BIOS?

#

and tell it to use the dedicated card

sullen harness
#

Sure but I need it to work

#

If that doesn't work in win 11 i'm into buying a new laptop

#

So I want to find out if they fixed it yet

tons and tons of issues

torn monolith
#

Those are all from 2 years ago, IMO, make 2 usbs and see if you can test win 11

#

(one for win 11, one for 10)

sullen harness
#

So I just wanted to post and ask if anyone who is familiar with this or similar issues knows that the problem is resolved

torn monolith
#

it'll save you $1000 ish bucks

sullen harness
#

I don't want to be the furst to check

sullen harness
torn monolith
#

you get the idea

sullen harness
#

I know I can test it myself. I'm asking because I don't want to be the first one to find out and document

torn monolith
#

chances that someone has that same model atm and on windows 11 is low here 😦

#

you can try asking in the msi forums

sullen harness
#

It was a common problem on basically all GE-Raider machines, not just my specific model. Yeah, I will post on forums, just like I'm posting here, about a year before I actually critically need a fix

Windows 11 is very stable even on unsupported hardware

I have an MSI laptop (Stealth 15M A11UEKV) and on windows 11 my GPU driver would spaz out
