    I had updated BIOS and the graphics very switching just fine a few days back. I don't remember making any changes that couldhave caused this.

    I cannot seem the switch graphics. When I right-click on desktop and click on Switchable Graphics, the window opens. But when I click on Power-saving GPU, nothing happens at all. No wait sign, no hang, nothing. Its just stuck at the ATI graphics.
    I have tried uninstalling the CCC and installing the Leshcat drivers again, this time an older version, but its still the same.

    Any ideas?-

    Have you tried completely wiping drivers and doing a fresh driver install? What are your intel drivers at? Have you tried different versions of them?
