Hi, we have an Ideapad U410 with Windows 10. But no matter what I do, Windows only seems to use the built in Graphics 4000 card; not the Geforce 610M. How do I know this? for example when I start CCleaner, it reports the system specs as "Graphics 4000 card". When I run dxdiag.exe, it reports DirectX hardware as Graphics 4000. How can I be sure that the intel card is disabled and only the Geforce is used?
1) I tried Reinstalling the G610M drivers from Geforce.
2) Tried activating the card in the Geforce 3D dashboard panel
3) Tried Going into the Bios to disable the Graphics 4000 - impossible as this laptop doesn't seem to allow going into the bios, only into the Windows recovery dashboard
I'll be grateful for any help...! The Geforce 3D shows in device manager as active alongside the Graphics 4000, but it doesn't seem to work at all. Unless this is all obfuscated from the user and the Geforce card is being used in Windows when it sees fit...
thanks
Ideapad U410 has Geforce 610M but resolution wond go beyond 1368x768..
