    Try using your Drivers & Utilities disk and re-installing the Intel/AMD drivers first and foremost. You should be able to then right click anywhere on the desktop and select the switchable graphics option and be sure to set it to "High Performance" as this option should enable the 7970M.

    Check in the CCC for options and there should also be a hotkey (Fn+F2 I believe, but check owner's manual) to see if there is a way to force it to use the TV.

    install the one from clevo drivers , you are using non-optimized drivers

    here is the link for 7970 drivers:


    Serv-U - Error Occurred

    for future driver update for vga and other driver:

    CLEVO - Download

    make sure you uninstall intel driver because the driver will install another intel driver
