    so I just got my m11x (lunar shadow) r1 today and I'am SOOOO happy with it....except one thing. Once I started it up I did my updates and installed my antivirus etc etc. once rebooted I tried to change the gfx to the integrated one. Behold the toaster.exe problem popped up.
    I've been reading on how to solve this issue but no success so far :( .
    Does anyone know how to solve this? or have a work around it all.

    and since being pretty new to the m11x...I was wondering if they came with lcd or led screens. Personally my laptop came with the sec5441 screen?


    If anyone can clear my mind from these question's this laptop is gonna be my girlfriend for a goodwhile.

    Thank's in advance guys :)

    Toaster.exe I believe is part of the Dell Datasafe program which comes installed on the m11x. If you open up the task manager, you can end the toaster.exe process and it will allow you to switch between graphics cards. You will have to do this each time you start up the laptop though so, if you don't need the program, you could just uninstall it to make the problem go away.

    The panels are led backlit. SEC means that you have a Samsung panel.
