Geforce GT 640m has been overtaken by Intel HD 4000. Could use some advice.

Hey There.

So my fps in games dropped really sudden for 5 days ago, so I thought that I might had to update my graphic card. That didn't help, so then I just formatted my pc (since it had been along time since I did that). However that didn't help either. I have an Aspire 3-571g btw.

So I ran a little test where I deactivated my integrated intel card to force the Geforce card to work, however that resulted in after my restart that I could play any games at all.

It would be lovely if somebody had a fix for this, as I said before I have updated my graphic card so it's not that.

Best Regards and thanks in advance.

Remove the driver of GT 640M and from the laptop at all - you ll be asked . Restart . Install the default driver from the DVD you ve got.

i see this on my laptop - Run with graphics processor->High performance NVIDIA processor
