See my post sent a few seconds ago. I can switch off this feature in the BIOS of the Lenovo.
(On the othe hand, if there is work being done according to Cristian re Optimus then I can get the unit and use it with Win #8 while the Optimus question has been resolved.) W8? Good luck! :-D
I cannot have it replaced it with any Linux distro - even though Lenovo DO ship some laptops with a Linux distro "of your choice". However, the upgrade to W 8.1 from W 8 is a freebie so I will do that. (The computer I ordered for my wife at the beginning of this year came with W 7 pre-installed, and it is still there. But it is never used. OK, I tell a lie - it was used a few times to update the files on a satnav unit I bought but that's all. And on this Lenovo I just ordered W8 can sit there rotting away while I have my oS 13.1 installed and used daily :-) .)
