    So here's what happened I started my computer yesterday by holding down the right mouse click to boot into the integrated graphics. I left the computer on all night downloading. I got up turned the computer off and then about an hour later i turned it back on only to find it wont use my 8800. fn+f7 doesnt do anything, i've pulled the battery and power and held the power button for 30 sec( i read somewhere that works), i've hit fn+f7 during boot, nothing.

    plz help
