    Hello all,

    I recently purchased a Y410p from Lenovo and am concerned that there is an issue with how it is handling the graphics card. When I check the display information in dxdiag it states that my graphics card in the Intel HD 4600. Is this something I should be concerned about? If so, what is the fix?

    Thanks!

    Go to Nvidia Control Panel, 3D settings, Preferred Graphics Processor. From there you can choose:

    - High performance Nvidia Processor (GT750M)
    - Integrated Graphics (HD4600)
    - Auto-Select (Optimus)

    Cheers.
