    the power issues that were resolved during testing?? Weren't!!

    Actual install and my laptop is having all sorts of power issues. Drains battery overnight? Shutting the lid freezes it and I have to hold down power button (still lit) to switch off and then switch back on etc. Obviously something not right in full launch? I read there were issues during...
