780 gtx graphics card and windows 10

Hey guys,

i got a mx17 r3 which i just got from a friend and i wanted to upgrade to windows 10 to test out the os but for some reason i get either a blue, pink, or white screen on post when my hd graphics card is enabled... 

it's a gtx 780 which i bought from Nvidia... can someone help me out with a fix? Is the card even compatible with my setup??? or did i just throw away my money on the os, and the card?!?!?!?!

Hello, 

Unfortunately, according to the policy document, the M17x series will not be supported on Windows 10. Some users have successfully installed Windows 10 on these non-supported systems. But they did all the driver investigation (example = installing 7/8/8.1 drivers) to force it to work. Dell does not have the resources to do this on non-supported systems.  I recommend you also try posting this on the Notebook Review and Alienware Arena forums for assistance.
