Hi coteyr & kubahaha, I have now installed Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 8 side by side with no issues. Decided to stick with Ubuntu 12.04 (did a clean install). Thank you guys for responding my question :)

Hi, I decided to do a clean install for Ubuntu was because my Ubuntu packages were broken. I have now clean installed Ubuntu 12.04 (stick with it due to LTS) and Windows 8 side by side. Thank you for your efforts :D

Besides, are you able to use Hibernate in Ubuntu? And also, I found that Login Sound is gone in Ubuntu 12.04. It was there in Ubuntu 11.10. Sorry for being too particular in minor problems. Thanks for your help. :)

hiya, sorry for confusin you. I will explain one issue at once. if u launch your Terminal and press Backspace on your keyboard, do you hear any sound like the Default under System Settings > Sound > Sound Effects? Thanks.

I did all the above. they are exactly the same. Two minor things i noticed, when the Unity is in 3D mode, there is no alert sound (ie when i undo something in Terminal and "over undo", there is supposed an alert sound like "tok") and the icon hover is like this instead of the normal beautiful one. Previously when I still have nvidia installed, the Unity is not in 3D but i can hear the alert sound effect and also the icon hover is the original ones. Once back to Intel HD, they're gone. Do you have idea with what I said?:)

@Hanynowsky I have referred to this Bumblebee tutorial in this link. It seems helpful. I did it, and I got 1 or 2 hours extra. However, the time left is very fluctuating. So I am not too sure if my problem is solved? Can you please take a look at the link and see if it will work (in your opinion) for my laptop? And, what about the Optimus you told me? Your reply would be much appreciated :) Thanks a million :)
