Hello, My integrated graphics is not getting detected for some reason, and I need help, because everytime I update my GPU, the screen's resolution turns very bad... I have an Asus Sabertooth z87 motherboard, and an Intel core i7 4770k hasswel, if the problem is in any of the above, please let me know. Some more info I forgot to add c; : the computer is detecting the cpu, and says that it is 4770k, but what I did not mention was that it was not getting detected on intel's official site, and when I click on the detect integrated gpu button, it shows up my gtx 780 and says that it's not compatible (because it's not...). So... this is my motherboard's manual (http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1150/SABERTOOTH-Z87/E7868_SAbertooth_Z87.pdf) and the site that I was trying to detect on (http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect/graphics) so... do I have to install a driver first to use the integrated gpu, and so it can detect it??? thanks in advance (I have not installed the gpu driver, never! but do I have to, so it can detect it? oh and when I download the software manualy, it said, you do not have the minimum requirements, I have 16gb RAM, nice motherboard. and another one said you dont have the right operating system, (but I have windows 7 like it wants, but maybe the setup was for 32-bit). Thank you!

Hi, have you made sure that lucid Virtu is enabled? This may cause this although i'm not sure. The lucid virtu drivers and Intel HD drivers will be on your motherboard and or your GPU's installation disks.
Maybe make sure that it's enabled in your BIOS.

If you would like some advice : Turn off and uninstall lucid virtu and intel HD. This will create less heat on your CPU therefore opening up more room for overclocking (If you do it or are thinking of it). The lucid virtu is really only useful for light tasks, i've even seen virtu to turn on the dedicated GPU just for youtube on resolutions over 720p. Gathering from the GPU you have you plan on gaming and/or video editing and virtu will not provide any help at all, just case a few degrees in temps.

Good luck, hope some of this helps
