    Specs below, my system doesnt seem to detect the Intel IGP regardless of what program I use. AFAIK, all mobile i3s have an IGP including this one. This is also according to the specs on the Intel website.

    How can i get it to appear and switch between the two easily?

    i know nothing about your model or ati graphics but looking at the system spec > Satellite Pro L650-165 - Product Specifications - Toshiba it shows this and i cant see anything saying it has intel graphics as well:
