    Ok my problem here is that my laptop model QX411-WO1UB supposedly comes with an nvidia geforce gt 520/525m gpu card. However I can't access my NVIDIA CONTROL PANEL in the hardware and sound settings area. Somehow on the other hand, I see the NVIDIA Graphics Driver 266.72 listed in the program listings, not only thats weird but I can also choose to uninstall that driver lol.

    When I go check on the Device Manager, it shows only the Intel HD graphics card as my one and only display adapter.

    I even tried to download a fresh clean 266.72 driver but it keeps saying "There are no components to install." lol

    I really looking forward to any help/suggestions. Pls I really need it badly

    First I would try updating the Intel HD drivers at that link, seeing that those NVIDIA graphics card are really old, chances are so are your Intel HD graphics, then I would try a newer version of your NVIDIA graphics drivers
