Hi, I've been looking for a solution to this issue and found a few things that come close but don't quite nail it.
I have an Asus laptop with on-board Intel graphics processor as well as a discrete Nvidia Geforce card.
This is all working fine and switches to the discrete card when running games, etc.
The problem is this:
I just connected an external 30" monitor (via HDMI) and the highest resolution the onboard card will allow it to display is 1920x1200. The monitor's native resolution is 2560x1600.
So, I need to switch the adapter powering this monitor (and hence I guess the entire desktop/GUI) to the discrete card.
I have tried going into the nvidia control panel and making the default card the high performance card, and have rebooted etc, but the Windows GUI is still being powered by the onboard card. I don't see any way to change this from within Windows itself.
Any ideas?
