    I know this has been dealt with multiple times... and the problem isn't that I don't understand anything about Optimus.. etc.. what I'm trying to find online is that even though I'm running javaw.exe through my High Performance nVidia driver, I can't run minecraft properly... it's as if it's still running off the ty Intel one...

    Although I must say, sometimes it runs perfectly, with no problems whatsoever, even with my HD texture pack... but for some reason, it decides to go on me... Anyone can help please? I'd greatly appreciate this.

    Hey Bigtonyman... Yeah I have done all this what you said... and still have this problem. My fps just keeps dropping... and the red graph when you press F3 on Minecraft... just keeps rising.
