dojo9pl Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I have a big problem... In my laptop i have 2 video card. intel 3000 and gt540m... Normally without graphics mods Skyrim open and running with my gt540m video card. But when i install mod in launcher i see only intel hd 3000 and i can't change it because game doesn't see my second video card... And ideas? Please help me. In Nvidia panel i set launcher.exe, tesv.exe and skyrimlauncher.exe to run with my nvidia card... but game still starts with intel hd. When i unistall mod then game start with gt540m normally...

RitualBlack Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 The intel 3000 is an integrated video card which all laptops using a second gen i7 have. Your 540m is the dedicated video card. I am not sure if it has to do with the optimus thing which the Nvidia cards have but I would look for a way to disable it in your control panel. I read somewhere that setting your 540m as the default device may help you. I am not familiar with new Nvidia cards (I am more of an AMD fellow :tongue: ) so I am not sure the full features of optimus. Just in case it switches to your integrated graphics when your laptop is on a power saving mod you should create a 'high performance' profile which you would use when your laptop is plugged in.

dojo9pl Posted May 11, 2012 Author Share Posted May 11, 2012 i don't now where i can change it... In Nvidia panel i check option Global settings: Automatic i changed it to Nvidia Card. But still the same thing. When i have graphic mod in launcher i see only Intel HD. game of course starts on this card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualBlack Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Which graphics mod are you talking about? I know that some will display whatever video card the user of the mod had, for example; One of the ENB mods displayed my card as a Nvidia 8800 when in actual fact my laptop has x2 6970m (amd cards). Does the game just say you are using the card and you are getting about the same fps with and without the mod or does it actually switch to your integrated card making the game pretty much unplayable?

dojo9pl Posted May 11, 2012 Author Share Posted May 11, 2012 I try two mods... FXAA Post Process Injector and RCRN v21 HDR - Realistic Colors and Real Nights and after install (i try manual and automatic) in launcher i can see only Intel HD. Launcher display Intel HD and in fact game start on Intel HD. Game is unplayable. Normaly i have 30-40fps on high/normal. When i try to start on intel i have... 10 or even 5...

RitualBlack Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I didn't much like the FXAA injector. Give this mod a try instead of the injector and let me know if you still have the problem. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=13531 . I believe the FXAA mod changed what the game detected my video card incorrectly as well and though it didn't hurt my performance it may do something odd for a optimus card.
