Today I transferred my PC to a new case and installed a brand new graphics card but I looked in the DxDiag and it is not showing up and I double checked to make sure it was pushed into its slot correctly anyone have any idea what's wrong?

Edit: Fans are working on card and there was no prior card in my machine.

The laptop uses the Nvidia Optimus Technology. The laptop/PC will use the integrated Intel adapter for normal use.

If you open the Nvidia Control panel you can make sure that the games/applications are using the Nvidia graphics.

In some right click on a game and from there you can see run with graphics processor>>high performance nvidia processor

Run a game that you know uses the GT 540M.
Alt -Tab out of the game and then run DXDIAG.

Creating Optimus Settings for a New Program:

Open the NVIDIA Control Panel.
Select Manage 3D Settings.
Select Program Settings tab.
Click Add.
Browse to and select the application executable file that needs the new profile. (Browse to Windows/System32/dxdiag.exe)
Choose the preferred graphics processor to use from the drop menu.

Open Nvidia Control Panel and Click on Desktop Menu
Checkmark all options
