I was happy so far with my G751JY and windows 10 until the november cumulative update windows 10 build 1151. Half of the windows functions are now unresponsive. Including the WiFi that is disconnecting randomly. I can't even uninstall any program since the function is freezing. I will have to wipe out and clean install a new windows.
My former G73JW (owned by my sister) just crashed last week on a windows 10 update and is so far totally destroyed. when she called, she was desesperate with her Master degrees documents that she had to turn in the next day. I showed up with the Windows 10 USB stick, Thinking it was a simple repair... I could not reinitiate or repair anything. I had to format the drive twice before getting the windows 10 clean install to work and it went down again after the built 1151 update. (fortunately I could save her documents using MS DOS prior to wipe everything). The G73 is still down, I will try another windows install but it will indeed fail again.
So about my question... Am I alone of experience issues with the Build 1151?

G73 is is not supported for windows 10 upgrade according to asus website. My old G74sx is not supported neither so I'm sticking with Win7.

let me say - that I'd upgrade many older laptops then your G73 ( some even had Pentium Core 1st generation! ).
At first not all the drivers where there... but installing origional manufacturer ( like realtek for audio, intel INF for chipset etc... ) driver's on these win10 machines - worked without any problem.
even so, win10 comes with larger pool of drivers then win8 or 7.... - so statistically speaking - win10 have more chance of working on old laptops then win7 have.
