New Vegas not using correct graphics card.


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. As stated in the title, it's not letting me choose the better option.

No matter what fix I've tried out of the seemingly hundreds available, the NV launcher will not allow me to select or use anything but the integrated Intel HD 4000. This is before or after I installed NVSE/4GB Fallout, either way it makes no difference.

This gives me 30ish fps on a modded game, as long as I don't have a single retexture or added effect. It won't allow me to select my AMD Radeon HD 8700M, and I can't get it to run with it at all.

The dedicated card obviously isn't perfect for gaming, but will take my automatic settings for Skyrim from Low to Ultra, and allow me to play it pretty heavily modded. I'm on a Samsung laptop with Windows 8.

Does anyone have kind of a tired and tested method of getting it to use the correct one?

Thanks much in advance if anyone can help.



EDIT: Just thought I'd add I'd already tried disabling the Intel, all it does is register the basic windows driver. No mention of the AMD Radeon.
