zleto Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Hi all !! First, please excuse my poor english! So I own a fujutsu siemens laptop. Here are the main specs: -> FUJITSU SIEMENS Amilo Xi 3650-011 -> Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 (2,26 GHz) -> Screen 18,4'' Full HD -> Blu-ray -> Graphic card nVidia GeForce 9600M GT 512 Mo GDDR3 Hybrid Power Technology (switch on Intel® GMA X4500 HD) -> ... Soooooo, what is my problem? First you may not know how this Hybrid Power works. So do I ... Well, it "enhance" the integrated graphic card WHEN NEEDED. Example: I'm going on the Internet. It uses the Intel graphics. I run a game, It'll SWITCH to Nvidia 9600 mgt (technically it'll use both cards.) BUT. We also have 3 different "power management" settings. 1. Low consumption : NEVER HAS THE Nvidia 2. Standart use: NEVER HAS THE Nvidia 3. Power use: If not on battery, will use nvidia. (you can change those settings but it's not my point) My problems are the following: 1. I can NOT change to nvidia. Tried to modify all settings but not possible. I assume this is a bug due to the fact that this technology is quite new. But I cannot activate the Nvidia. So I have really sucking graphics on such a good screen. So lame. FYI, I go on the settings for power management, find the good options, but the last one, which allows me to select if it'll use Nvidia or not, does not appear in the menu :) 2. I really don't like the Intel results. (fonts / colors / ...). I don't really use this laptop in other places than my home (remember, it's a 18" ^^) so I'd like to use ONLY the NVIDIA. ALL THE TIME. And IF, someday, I want to use again the "power saving" feature, I'll try to get new drivers :) Solutions??? I know that I can select on the BIOS to use ONLY the nvidia. But then I will need the drivers. Which I cannot find :P Any other solution? Heard about a bug like mine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
