Hello all,
I don't know how since I didn't change any of the settings myself and i'm quite the tech noob, but all of a sudden I get something in my tool bar showing that i'm now in increased performance for Nvidea hybrid graphics. Not that I really mind, since I do play games on this comp (and my fps like doubled in this mode), but I would like to be able to set it lower when I'm not gaming. I'm running vista btw
Here's the rub, I follow the instructions (go to 'more power options', change power plan settings, change advanced power settings) However here i'm stuck: the instructions tell me to expand the 'GPU settings category', but it is not available anywhere, even if I click on 'change settings that are currently unavailable'.
My user manual instructs to go the quick start button 'hybrid vga' on the multimedia board, but I can't seem to find that either.
I'd like to set it up so I have one power plan with balanced graphics mode for when i'm working/browsing, and an increased graphics performance plan for when i'm gaming but now in each power plan the graphics are set on increased performance.
any help would be much appreciated!
cheers,
