    Hi all

    I just got my self this lovely machine S15.5. I have a problem tho, when i slide from Stamina to Speed it only seems to be running the Intel 4000. When i slide to speed the taskbar message says its switching to hybrid card, but when in Display in control panel its still on intel 4000.

    Any help on how to get the Nivida 640m running?

    thanks

    Hi,
    I have S15 too
    It seems Windows always uses Intel HD 4000 even in speed mode, Nvidia is used when you run 3D (games, rendering, ...), what's your WEI graphic score?
