    Hi,

    First I would like to say that this is a great discussion forum, been reading it alot lately :D

    I have just received my m11xR2, and I have one major problem. I want to game with HDMI screen connected, problem is it does not detect Nvidia when using HDMI.

    F.ex Heroes of Newerth works really nice when using the laptop monitor, it detects Nvidia and everything is fine. But when launching the game with HDMI output I only get integrated graphics :mad:

    Anyone else have this problem with HDMI output?

    My HoN switches over fine with HDMI connected. Have you tried manually setting hon.exe to use the 335 in Nvidia Control Panel? Also if you could post what version video drivers you're using that would help.

    Yeah, I agree. No problems here. Make sure that the game is in your whitelist.
