  1. I had a similar issue with my GTX 765M and was able to get around it. What I ended up doing was going into the BIOS and disabling the discrete graphics and enabling the integrated graphics (the instructions on how to do this are included in the forum post that talks about installing windows on an A12 unlocked bios, can't seem to find the link right now). Booted back into Windows, and did the Windows 10 upgrade install from: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10. After the Windows 10 install completed, I removed my NVIDIA drivers and created a registry key to allow Windows to gracefully recovery from GPU driver crashes: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2665946 Then I downloaded the Windows 10 drivers for my GPU from NVIDIA's website, extracted them, made the changes to the nvdmi.inf file to allow it to install, and then I put Windows in Test Signing Mode. Rebooted my computer, entered bios on start up, disabled integrated graphics and enabled discrete graphics. Booted into Windows 10, installed the NVIDIA drivers, turned off Test Signing Mode and rebooted. Everything appears to be working, including the Azalia audio. I hope this helps get your M17x-r3 on Windows 10. Note: please be careful when disabling discrete graphics and enabling integrated graphics and vice-verse. I have screwed up this process enough times, requiring me to remove my discrete card, clearing and resetting the BIOS settings just to get my M17x-r3 to boot again.
