    hi all,
    i recently bought a m14x for playing MS flight simulator X.
    my problem is: how do i get fsx to use the nvidia gt 555m?
    i added fsx.exe to the whitelist and after starting fsx i see an fsx icon in the lGPU activity list.
    in the display setting tab of fsx though, i still see only the intel integrated gpu to choose from.
    did i forget something?
    erik,

    Erik to be honest I don't know at this time how to solve your probelm. Maybe you might go to the M11X forum on how to whitelist for the Invida card. I will be buying a M14x in the future for running FSX.

    I plan on getting the I5 cpu, just getting the screen upgrade.
