    Wasn't sure were to post so send me to the rigth section if it doesn't fit in here.

    I have a Clevo W370ET with GTX 680M and Intel integrated graphic. I got a game Anarchy Online that doesn't detect my Nvidia card so I went into device manager and disable Intel integrated.

    *I have used the Nvidia control panel to use Nvidia on the game also Nvidia global it still wont use my GTX 680M*

    After i disable it everything got a bit fuzzy blurry tried to open Nvidia control panel and this poped up.

    Yes it looks just as blurry as on the image.

    And when I tryd to find the card in the game it said Microsoft basic display driver.

    Anyone know why the laptop wont use my Nvidia card like it is now how do I even get a picture on the screen when its not using any of my gfx cards?

    Is there anyway to tell windows 10 to use my Nvidia GTX 680M?

    I can set resolution but only 2 options lowest and highest.

    *edit* Can not disable Intel in BIOS

    Have you tried to go into Nvidia Control Panel and go to Mange 3D Settings. Chose the program you are trying to run and select the high performance Nvidia processor.

    with optimus i dont think you can turn off intel graphics.

    ive never heard of this game but google shows its a very low spec directx8 so it might only run on intel but this is just a guess.

    "Pentium II 450 256 Mb RAM 3D card with 32MB RAM, DirectX 8X CD-ROM drive 1GB free hard drive space Internet connection, 56K Modem"

    i would do a system restore to get intel back on then look through this http://archive.anarchy-online.com/w...D=1003,1009,1026&table=PUBLISH&template=drill

    Or try renabling it OP.. The steps above is how you select the NVIDIA GPU.. Also if specs are so low, the Intel GPU should easily be able to run it..

    Yes it should and it isnt only getting 18fps. I have spoken with tech at funcom and we couldn't find any solution. Intel 4000 GPU should easily run it. THey got a old and a new engien and it's the same on both. The game doesn't detect my Nvidia GTX 680M.

    On my Desktop it works just find with GTX 970.

    Microsoft basic display driver tend to mean that you need to install Intel graphics driver. As for Nvidia, you can try to find an older driver version such as 353.62 and try installing that to see if it helps.
