• Using a dedicated graphics card

  My laptop is Dell Inspiron 15r 5537

  I have a 2 GB AMD 8850 M dedicated graphics memory

  The problem is the more I play the games don't use it but rather use the Integrated INtel HD Graphics 4400.

  Is there a way to force the games to use the AMD card? I tried setting in the Catatlst control center 'High Performance', but it does not work.

  Help, please!

  Thank you.

  Win it in video performance video vs integrated only and is cheaper to build than a system with video true, discreet (something now found only in the high end portable computers - usually $1,500 or higher price points).

• Cannot use the dedicated graphics card

  Hello

  As already mentioned that my laptop will use only integrated hd 3000 graphics, while I have a 6770 m on board.

  I have good drivers for both (or I guess that since there is no warning in Device Manager).

  Whenver I try to play a game well, only the built-in graphics card is available and it doenst go while playing, because I get 20 fps on settings lowest playing while I could play most of the games with up to 60 images per second at the top.

  Catalyst Control Center also has a problem during installation because my hardware version no is not supported even if auto detection selected download I need.

  This is a common problem with computers laptops alienware as much as I found on the web, but they have all nvidia graphics cards.

  If it is of no help: I have a HP Pavilion dv6 6b50eb, my hardware id 6770 m is

  PCI (slash) VEN_1002 & DEV_6740 & SUBSYS_3388103C & REV_00

  If you are sure about the drivers (?) Check the BIOS configuration to see if any option on VGA as:

  Switchable Graphics > fixed or automatic

  or similar

• Aspire V3 - 571 G BSOD when using the dedicated graphics card

  Hey,.

  I just got my new laptop, but as the title suggests, whenever I try to run a program that uses the graphics card, it stutters a bit, before finally being BSOD'ing or saying "NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver display driver, Version 307.17 not responding and has successfully recovered."

  This happens even with own NVIDIA Control Panel program, where it gives you this small window of the NVIDIA logo rotating. I tried with Minecraft, just to make sure it wasn't this one program.

  Everyone has experienced this before or have any advice? Thank you very much in advance!

  PS: I would have presented a ticket of support on this issue, but it asks me to enter the date of purchase, but it keeps screaming at me that I need to enter "valid a date", even if I use the datePicker bit next to the entry field.

  I ended up sending the laptop in for repair, and apparently it was a faulty motherboard, so they changed it. Everything worked smoothly after that.

• dedicated graphics card problem

  Hi all!

  I have a HP probook 4530 s and after 2 years of using the dedicated graphics card (ATI Radeon 7470) seems to have a problem. I was playing my game, which is a flash game based on chrome and suddenly the screen frozened. I use by default the ATI graphics card because the system supports switchable graphics. So, after this screen frozen, I turned off my laptop and after I turned once again he doesn't want to go through the screen of windows welcome. I went into safe mode, disabeled ati graphics card and after I restarted again, I could get properly into windows. A funny thing is that after that, I reinstalled windows and the first thing is to install the graphics driver. After clicking on restart my laptop frozened again in the Welcome to windows screen.

  Can anyone help me please with this problem?

  Thank you in advance.

  Try from the BIOS, there is something that you can uncheck it from the BIOS and it will work exclusively on the second card, of the processor.

  The thing is that I found the problem and it is verry annoing. I disassembled my laptop to renew the theat conductor paste and I saw that the old spent was melted by the heat by the graphics card and drained on certain components close to, and I know that this dough is a conductor of electricity now so bye bye dedicated graphics card.

• Dedicated graphics (A1398) driver problem

  My Macbook Pro (A1398) dedicated card (Geforce GT650M) graphics driver problem.

  Installation of the drivers of web from Nvidia (WebDriver - 346.03.10f02.dmg, WebDriver - 346.03.10f01.dmg, WebDriver - 346.03.10 b 01 .dmg) with CUDA drivers (cudadriver - 7.5.29 - macos.dmg) and toolboxes CUDA (cuda_8.0.29_mac.dmg and cuda_7.5.27_mac.dmg) does NOT.

  When I tried to install Caffè/CUDA (used for Machine learning), my card (Geforce GT650M) dedicated graphics card driver has become corrupt (seen through the Console).

  Dedicated card random is more gets reported under 'report system' (probably due to the problem of driver).

  Attempts to restore have been hit and Miss so far.

  I downloaded the drivers from Nvidia web (WebDriver - 346.03.10f02.dmg, WebDriver - 346.03.10f01.dmg, WebDriver - 346.03.10 b 01 .dmg) but they have only worked / failed randomly when combined with CUDA drivers (cudadriver - 7.5.29 - macos.dmg) and toolboxes CUDA (cuda_8.0.29_mac.dmg and cuda_7.5.27_mac.dmg).

  Only the internal graphics card Intel Graphics 4000 is constantly working.

  I cleaned the system (by removing all traces of the nvidia drivers and drivers of coda) while that to reinstall these drivers in different combinations.

  Yet, the conclusion is that it is all the success and the miss.

  Sometimes it worked I could test samples CUDA.

  Other times, that it worked, but the laptop would freeze randomly.

  Then, he failed once again and returned to map internal Intel completely.

  It was suggested that I should be able to restore it by reinstalling ElCapitan

  I don't have the luxury of reinstall ElCapitan.

• HP 15-D103TX computer laptop problem: Windows does not detect the dedicated graphics card

  Hi all

  I recently bought a laptop HP 15 - D103TX , which is held responsible for Free on BACK. I have updated my Windows 8 operating system and have installed all the drivers from the HP website. The laptop has dedicated 2 GB Nvidia Geforce 820 M graphics card.

  But when I checked, I found that Windows displays the graphic memory dedicated only 0 MB.

  

  As you can see in the screenshot, it shows as 0MB dedicated graphics memory.

  Anyone can clear me, upward on this subject? Is it a driver problem, or what is Windows 8 going crazy.

  Thank you very much in advance!

  Kind regards

  Brahmnoor

  Okay, I found the solution. In fact, the Haswell Intel i5 processor that my 15 HP D103TX has also comes with an Intel 4600 GPU intregated. So when I do normal tasks, the GPU intregated works, so Windows does not display the NVIDIA GPU 820M, but when I play a game or doing intense graphics work, he switches to the NVIDIA one.

  In fact, it makes sense, because it preserves the battery of the laptop.

• Call of duty Black Ops Zombies 2, using the wrong graphics card

  Hello, I recently contacted Activision about the mode of call of duty Black Ops Zombies 2 very agitated and jumpy, like what you would get if you've played online with someone across the world, like really bad lag offline server, now I can play the campaign and multiplayer on the highest graphics settings and have no problem at all just the Zombies mode, even in offline mode. People at Activision back to me and said it could be because the Zombies is using the integrated graphics card Intel CPU and not discrete AMD card, and they said I should contact HP to see if if there is a way to activate manually in Control Panel. I'll link the Forum on Activision's post to read what said the people.
  https://support.Activision.com/Atvi_my_support_case_details?ID=500U0000005nbrlIAA&RMA=0

  If it does not work the link, then let me know and I will copy them here for you to see, if you think you need.

  Hi Goochster,

  I tried the link you provided, but it is inaccessible, unless we have a forum of Activision account.

  Normally, all you have to do is right click on an empty spot on the desktop and select Configure switchable graphics.

  

  Select it gpu performance and click apply. That should leave the AMD GPU default graphics package.

  Put a check mark in the box for the "saving GPU on battery switch' your laptop will not consume so much battery capacity.

• Inspiron 3737 - pass fron integrated to the dedicated graphics card

  Hello

  I got Dell Inspiron 3737 with integrated graphics card Intel 4000 and dedicated Radeon HD8670M graphics card.

  Several weeks ago, I discovered this laptop works only with integrated IntelHD4000 (Win7 x 64). I installed the drivers of the latest GPU to dell, but it's not not to solve the problem. I installed older drivers, but also, there is no problem.

  I decided to reinstall windows.  I installed Windows 7 x 64, all the drivers from the dell site in the order which they suggest. But laptop also only use IntelHD4000. In Device Manager shows two graphics GPU Intel HD Family and AMD Radeon HD8670M. Catalyst, AIDA64 and CPU - Z will find only Intel HD 4000. Reference Dell start diagnostic tools and Dell Online Diagnostics found no no problem (all tests was passed).

  I tried to contact the technical support of Dell and got the following response "what did you want us? You are no longer under warranty and it's your problem! ».

  If I understand correctly the video driver installation and switching between integrated and dedicated graphics are global problem. Solve someone has mentioned the problem and how?

• Dedicated graphics will improve the VM?

  I have ESX installation on some HP ML115 servers with integrated with 32 MB graphics memory shared.  Buying a dedicated graphics card will enhance the slight variation when running the computer virtual 3-4 at a time?

  Hello

  You mean install a new graphics card in the HP ML115 hosts running ESX?

  No, I'm sorry that the hosts will not use additional graphics cards. You cannot devote a graphics card to one of the virtual machines no more.

  This may be possible in the future, but it is not a choice available now. The graphics in your virtual machine is a completely virtual card and that's it would have recorded lower results in some scenarios.

  How you access the virtual machines currently? You use remote desktop or the Console of the Virtual Infrastructure?

  FWIW, remote desktop will give you a better experience as a remote console.

  Hope this helps,

• Photoshop CS6 use only Intel Graphics after NVIDIA updated

  Hey

  After that I updated the NVIDIA (320.49) drivers on your laptop with a geforce GT540M map

  Photoshop poster now only the graphics device built on the motherboard, the default

  Intel 3000. (im in Preferences > performance > settings of the graphics processor)

  How do for it to work and have it PS use the right graphic card?

  Please do not answer 'contact nvidia' because they say to contact adobe. And

  PS is the only software to have problems after the upgrade, so I consider

  This a problem of PS.

  Windows 8 + Photoshop Cs6 x 64

  If anyone has the same problem:

  I finally understood this, I had to right click on the PS icon and select

  Run with GPU > High Performance NVIDIA

  And this as the default to use map. Now it works as it should again, thank God!

• Satellite P305-S8822 - withdrawal of the dedicated graphics card

  Dear members of the forum,

  probably due to a fault of the graphics card dedicated to my

  Toshiba Satellite P305-S8822 (PSPC4U - 02T 014)
  Processor Intel Core 2 Duo T 5550
  ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 graphics card
  3072 MB PC5300 DDR2 SDRAM
  200 GB Serial ATA hard drive

  I'm not able to install Windows 7 or an another Version of Windows. Because I don't have the dedicated graphics card (only the onboard integrated graphics card) and found no BIOS option to turn it off, I would like to remove it from the motherboard. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find out whether or not the ATI graphics card is welded (which this would make very difficult). Thanks a lot for your answers and a better idea to solve the problem.

  To be honest, it won't be easy to solve your problem. Why?
  Many people who have mobile machines the same logic valid for desktop computers. Exchange upgrade or hardware components on mobile units is very limited and you can simply swap the GPU or change the BIOS settings.

  If the GPU is faulty in many cases entire motherboard must be replaced. I don't know what other people will write here, but what you can do is contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help or advice what can be done about it.

• Dedicated graphics memory

  Hello

  My current dedicated graphic memory is only 512 MB and it barely meets the requirement of minnimum for most games. After reviewing a few videos online I did this can be changed throgh the BIOS of the system but it is simply not that option in my current version of the BIOS (I have already installed the update to the newest BIOS).

  So, this brings me to my question. Is there a way (maybe a program or something of the sort) to increase the graphics memmory dedicated or am I stuck with this amount?

  (My laptop model: HP Pavilion dv6-6b47dx)

  Thank you!

  I never heard of anyone being able to change memory allocation of graphics by any means.

  If you want to try different things, go ahead and let us know if something works, because hundreds of people have this question and hundreds were disappointed.

  If you want to replace the motherboard to support one listed in the service manual for your model, if any, which may have better graphics, it would be your only option.

  I would like to buy a new laptop before going this route.

• HPE h9-1001de: HPE h9-1001de - broken graphics card can I use the integrated graphics card Intel?

  I bought this PC four years ago (just the version, not CS as in the link):

  http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docid=c03106002

  The integrated graphics went broken today. Research on the spec Web site I noticed that the Intel's integrated graphics. I won't buy another video card, if there is a graphics processor integrated into the processor.

  Indeed, there are two additional DVI ports; However, they are sealed with a sign "DO NOT REMOVE", and each port is sealed with two screws with a strange format (star with six faces?).

  Why these DVI ports are sealed? Why with this format live strange? I hope that's not for licensing reasons, and that I'm still able to use them as DVI ports...

  Thank you.

  Hello:

  I don't think it is sealed for any other reason than from your PC with a video of the add-on card, they would not people plugging in these ports DVI cables and by calling HP support complaining that the video does not work (because an add on card disables the integrated graphics card).

  Remove your discrete PCIe x 16 graphics card, so the built-in graphics card is enabled, put your hand on the good size torx screwdriver and remove the cover, so you can use the integrated graphics card adapter.
