    I installed the new bios A14 on my 1340.
    I tried switching to High Performance, the nVidia thing that switches to the dual mode popped up, it stuck for about a minute, the screen flashed and I saw windows trying to install new drivers for a "VGA Controller", it failed and now I dont see the green thing in the taskbar that indicates if the 9500 is switched on or not.
    When I go to the Device Manager I only see a Geforce 9400. Now that Im switching from Balance to High Performance nothing happens.
    How do I fix this ?
