Alrighty, so my after about an hour or getting pissed and yelling some mean things at my m11x, I'd thought I'd walk away and bring it to the general public.
Any help would be great.
All my optimus features seem to be integrated anymore, nothing will play on nVidia. I've set every setting in the nvidia control panel (They were set right already and working fine yesterday) including resetting them back to integrated and then to nvidia.
League Of Legends, Unreal 2004, Unreal 3, and WoW are all crap.
All I've done since last game worked fine last night is install 2 things, AVG 2011 (opposed to my AVG 9 prior) and Google Chrome (opposed to being a Mozilla guy, i figured I'd try it out again). I have used chrome with nVidia last night and that was working fine, same with AVG.
My m11x is plugged into my 32" VIZIO TV (1080p HDMI) and 5.1 Surround Sound, and some nights like last night i kept it running all night.
Come home from work, unplug everything and decide to play on my bed with wireless mouse, and holy crap LoL runs like poo! Soon realized all my games are doing it, including browsers, not using nVidia.
Plugged back into power, plugged in wireless mouse/keyboard, TV and Surround sound, still nothing. Restared, still nothing. Uninstalled AVG (just to see) and restarted, and still nothing. Reset all nVidia settings, still nothing. Rewhitelisted everything, still nothing.
It's weird, between playing games last night, and trying them now, the computer was never shut off, and nothing should of changed... I'm getting really mad.
Help please
