Hi everybody!

First of all, excuse me for bad english. I have a little problem. Some games are running on my processor but they should run on my video card. To do this, I have to go to AMD Catalyst Control Center and set my game on high priority. But shouldn't it switch automaticly when I start a game? An hour ago I had to do a survey on Steam and it mentioned that my video card an Intel HD graphics one was, but actually I have an AMD radeon HD 8750. So some programms think I haven't got a video card. Can u please help me?

CPU: intel core i5 3230m
GPU: AMD radeon HD 8750m
RAM: 8GB
Laptop: Lenovo G500

Thanks!!
