Bug Description
Scenario:
Use NVIDIA Prime to change between NVIDIA and Intel card within an Optimus setup. Ensure that the NVIDIA card is running, restart and boot into Windows 10. Wait a few minutes and Windows BSODs with DRIVER_
Problem:
Assuming that the NVIDIA card continues to be on and the Intel card is switched off after shutdown, Windows fails to continue the boot and my laptop screen goes completely blank, no light is generated until the BSOD arises above, which seems to assume that Windows becomes confused at the Intel card not being on.
