    I have been having a problem for some time now. I can't launch the task manager and many applications with nvidia optimus enabled(i.e with the gt550m on) but can do so after switching off Optimus. I cant even open the nvidia panel when optimus is on. Anyone know why this is so? This has been driving me crazy
