    As you can see in my sig I have sxps 1340.
    I have the 9500M with hybrid sli. I have a 9200MGS + 9400MG.
    I'm just wondering how I switch between which GPU to use, or to have them in SLI mode.
    I have gone to the nvidia control panel but don't see anything about SLI.

    Help plz :confused:

    Put the laptop in power saver mode and you'll see the Nvidia tray icon prompt you to switch GPU's
