  Hello

  I have a T410 with nVIDIA Optimus graphics, which includes both the nVIDIA NVS 3100 M and Intel HD integrated graphics.

  I have the following driver versions installed I got from here: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-76280

• Nvidia optimus T440p does not work on Windows 8.1

  Hello

  I recently bought my new laptop (Lenovo T440p) which comes with built-in OPTIMUS Intel coupled by GeForce GT 730 M 1 GB graphics card. I tried to play games; However for some reason any show of game options, that my Intel HD card is used as a default graphics card. This suggests that the OPTIMUS technology does not properly switch the graphics card. System running on windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit. How to activate the switching Optimus?

  THX

  Majlou

  Try the latest drivers available on the nvidia site. They work very well on T440s + gt730m and W8.1, so there should be no reason not to work on your t440p. For some reason, put the Lenovo system update does not detect them.

  You can also check in the nvidia Control Panel, that optimus is not set to "only integrated graphics. They are 3 parameters, you can choose amongst (gpu integrated, discreet, auto).

  It is also an option in the nvidia Control Panel to display an icon in the taskbar with the current gpu being used, could be useful. Do not remember exactly where the option is good.

• Satellite A660 - how to enable the nVidia Optimus technology

  Hello

  Is there a solution to market the technoogy optimus in my notebook?
  I have intel i3 330 m and Geforce GT 330 M - and the two are bound by Optimus, but find it deosnt work at all :/

  No, my short model is Satellite A660 PSAW3E.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Announces AFAIK, Optimus technology is fully automatic, allowing you to experiment with longer battery life.

  Optimus whitepaper
  http://www.nvidia.com/object/LO_optimus_whitepapers.html

  But I guess you need the nVidia Driver from the original graphics card.
  The Toshiba driver is changed for mobile use. It supports thermal protection that protects the GPU from damage.
  Drivers graphic originals don't support such function.

  However, Toshiba laptops are equipped with an ECO utility and this tool allows you to save battery power as well.

• FIXED: Y570 Nvidia Optimus does not

  Here's the issue I'm having with the Y570. I have the Intel HD driver and the driver Lenovo Nvidia's installed.

  When I open the Nvidia Control Panel, the drop-down list box for "favorite graphic processor:" is grayed out and I can't change it. The specified selection is "integrated graphics".

  I can't make this change when I choose the "Program settings" tab

  When I click on "System information" in the lower left corner it pulls up a window that shows the Nvidia 555 m and it's properties.

  Also, when I right click on an option of the program context menu «Run with GPU...» "is visible but greyed out.

  Thank you. Any help would be appreciated.

  
  

  CORRECTION: I didn't have to search carefully the internets that the Y570 has a manual switch to turn on the nvidia gpu. It is in the lower right corner and dragging on and hold down until the light comes on... I am very relieved to see.

  did you move graphics cards?

• Poor performance when multitasking on T510 Core i5, Windows 7 64, 4 GB of RAM, NVidia Optimus 512 MB

  I am sadly disappointed with my new Lenovo performance and do not know what could be the cause.

  I just got a new T510 with Core i5, 4 GB of RAM and Windows 7 64 processor. When I run a few programs, such as Photoshop, Virtualbox (850 MB of RAM allocated), Google Chrome with a few tabs I'm stuck.

  It seems that 4 GB of memory is not enough for the work that I did on a 2GB machine a week ago.

  Response time of the computer is a couple of seconds for the window switching. New programs begin to count in a few minutes. Consumption of RAM reaches 98%, even if no single program is listed to consume more than 150 MB in the Manager of tasks or resource monitor. The effects Aero cool work, however, there no sloppiness in the graphical layer of the system.

  Even now, after killing of Virtualbox, remaining processes are up to 89% of the RAM in the resource manager.

  I'm working on the power running with power setting 'Performance', but I can hardly call it a performance.

  It's ridiculous, it was supposed to be a fast multitasking machine and turns out a load of scrap metal. I used to work on 2GB, 1.6 GHz Celeron with processor Intel GMA, had Ubuntu host and Guest Windows XP with 750MB of RAM allocated, plus a couple of tools for programming and never had such problems _on ordinary basis_.

  I plan to run a Ubuntu on this machine because I can't just work this way on Windows 7... I can't even kill a process easily because it takes forever to complete a process.

  A friend of mine runs similar configuration on a slower machine T410 with CPU and the poor graphics and he says it's really strange, because he never had this kind of problem. My PC is new, 4 days from arrival, its is like 2 months old.

  Everyone knows about the similar problem? What could be the cause?

  At this point, I have Chrome with about 10 tabs, Firefox empty, empty Photoshop, Pidgin and 3 Windows Explorer running, Adobe Reader with 1 paper and Sticky Notes. Consumption of RAM is 3495MB used (Yes), 113 and 276 MB free Eve.

  What's not here?

  Please see the attached screenshot:

  

  http://img715.imageshack.us/i/captureybh.PNG/

  Well, the problem is resolved. After removing delivered Norton Internet Security suite, run as plate gold.

  I'll take another antivirus software, then.

  Now, even with the operation of Virtualbox, I still like 2 GB of free RAM. And no lag, no slowdowns. Woohoo.

  * beep * you Norton!

• W520, Win 2008 R2 & issues with NVIDIA 2000 M and Optimus

  I had this Setup program runs very well before, before my HARD drive crashed and I had to rebuild my images. But now I can't understand what I did and how I got it to work. I have two OS's installed on my laptop in a mode dual boot (Win7 & Win2k8 R2 SP1 SP1). I have the image of Win7 works great but Win2k8 R2 SP1 is sends adjustments.

  When I have the BIOS set to use DISCRETE (aka: NVIDIA) I managed to install the driver of the Optimus the latest NVIDIA drivers & everything works fine.

  However, when it is set to OPTIMUS or INTEGRATED, I can't display updated drivers. Driver Intel I am pulling on the Lenovo site it not install because it says that it is not supported in load on the operating system:

  http://support.Lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?docid=DS014907

  When I try to install NVIDIA drivers (when OPTIMUS is selected), it is said that he can that there is an Intel driver installed first.

  I don't remember how I got to this last work time and I'd really like to avoid entering the BIOS, whenever I need to go to Win2k8 and affecting it DISCREET that I prefer to stay in mode OPTIMUS being that it's benefitial on the battery life.

  Answering my own question...

  When you have a BIOS OPTIMUS value (discrete / INTEGRATED), install the drivers for Windows 7 NVIDIA Optimus:

  x 64- http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS014142

  x 86- http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS013693

  It will install the Intel & NVidia drivers. After that you have, you can retrieve the latest video drivers from the NVIDIA site & install successfully (which includes the NVIDIA Control Panel application).

  With the drivers installed, you will be able to set the BIOS for DISCRETE or INTEGRATED and it will find the correct driver at the start as he now installed.

• Qosmio X 870-116: use of Intel / nVidia GPU internal / external display

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio X 870-116 which have 2 video cards, an Intel onboard and a more powerful Nvidia.
  My problem, I did not how to pass my screen on the Intel card and I see my Nvidia for the display external.

  Someone has an idea to pass on to my first display nvidia card?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Something like this isn't possible.
  You cannot use two cards simultaneously for internal and external display.

  First of all, you can switch between the external and internal view using the Fn + F4 (or just F4) function key

  Secondly the nVidia Optimus technology optimize the performance of the laptop perfectly without a GPU nVidia and Intel graphics card.
  Switching is automatic and requires no reboot of s for laptop.

• Qosmio X 770-nVidia GPU OFF - GPU from Intel is in use

  Hello.

  Thanks in advance

  Unfortunately, don t speak French for the screenshot isn't very useful, but as far as I know the laptop supports nVidia Optimus technology.
  This means that in the case of the current execution software doesn't have a strong graphic performance, the internal Intel GPU would be used.

  I recommend this youtube video of nVidia Optimus technology and how to control this:

• Qosmio F750: Where is Optimus?

  Hello!

  Maybe I'm not to the point but the States from Toshiba, the F750 support NVidia Optimus (which would be a good idea for QuickSync Intel technology)... but I'm starting to think that the internal IGP is simply disabled and not exposed to the operating system.

  Shouldn't, I see two video cards (Intel / NVidia) in an active Optimus System Device Manager?

  Hello
  S interesting to my knowledge to use technology Optimus, the two GPU (internal and external) should be listed in Device Manager.

  The processor and chipset seems to support the internal GPU as shown here:
  Intel® Core i7-2630QM processor (6 M Cache, 2.00 GHz)
  http://Ark.Intel.com/products/52219/Intel-Core-I7-2630QM-processor-6M-cache-2_00-GHz

  But also, it is mentioned on the page of Intel:
