update to Win10, works for me.
First install Win10 as update to Win8/8.1, than do a clean install.
After that I was suprised but I had both cards drivers already installed.

Cons: probably something wrog with energy usage, because it was drained pretty quick (3h vs. 5 h earlier) and I suppose it's graphic card issue
