So i have an HP Pavillion dv6 6115ev. I have dual graphics card installed in it, the one is Intel Hd graphics 3000 for low speed and an amd radeon HD 7400M Series for a better speed.And the problem is that my the programs wont recognize the second graphics card (radeon) even if the system does recognize it(i think so, it might not).In device manager everything is ok but the programs cant recognise the second graphics card, a for example OBS there is no radeon only intel. The problem can be seen too when i type dxdiag where there is no radeon only intel. I need some help here because it is very annoying having bought something which doesnt work. Thanks everyone and sorry for my english.

*If i go to msinfo32 then it shows both graphics cards.. I am very confused guys.

Have you tried right clicking it yet? You also need to enable Fixed graphics mode in the Device Manager than access the CCC (Catalyst Control Center) and choose the higher graphics card option.

The amd is activated already. Can you please explain how to enable fixed graphics mode in the Device manager?? I have no idea how to do it and there are no answers in google only for bios.

Go to the link you can see the " Dynamic Mode" or " Fixed Mode ". Click the " Fixed Mode " then they will show you how to, and you can read the "Understanding Dynamic and Fixed Mode switchable graphics" I don't know that will help or not.
