    Was just about to ask the same question.

    I've tried downloading and white-listing the "Scannertron 5000".
    Tried right clicking > run with nvidia graphics card.
    Even loaded a game running the nvidia graphcis card and still it's not picking it up =/

    That's the response I got from the GW2 guys, so don't worry. They've got it under control =) Case closed

    Man I wish I had checked this thread before I spent like 30 minutes trying to whitelist Scannertron 5000 to detect my 580m.

    Either way, I'm really psyched about this beta. I hope we all get in!
