    Why Can't My Acer 3830TG Play any games?

    I just got an Acer 3830TG, clean installed it and installed all the drivers from here(including graphics drivers), and installed DirectX, set the GPU to the 540M in the Nvidia control panel, but for some reason, whenever I try to start any game, it starts, then minimizes, then simply tells me that the program has ended. It does this regardless of whether I'm using the 540M/Intel HD3000 graphics.

    Any reason why it's doing this?
