    Hi

    I would like to know if anyone here used egpu (any kind) with AMD APU notebook ?
    I have an Acer E1 with AMD APU and Windows even recognizes the egpu (Geforce GT 740) but the notebook only display graphics using the interal APU.

    I was able to make my egpu work on my old intel notebook (Core2 Duo with Intel X3100 graphics) right from boot time with no problem, but with the AMD APU no way

    Everything is plugged correctly, since Windows recognizes the external card, but no way to actually make it the real display

    Any one could help to teach what I must do ?

    Tks
