Hi guys, so I've bought a laptop which has an Nvidia graphics card but it always says that it is using intel.

How do I change it??

Thank you!!

On a laptop, you can't.


They are usually soldered to the board.

EDIT: Sorry i misread the question, make sure all the latest drivers are installed.

I'm pretty sure there is a setting in the BIOS that you can change to sort this out. Look it up and you might find where abouts it is. I've heard about this before with desktop computers using onboard graphics rather than the dedicated GPU.
