First of all here's the specs
Acer Aspire V Nitro Black Edition (VN7-592G)
- Operating System: Windows 10 Home 64-Bit
- CPU: Intel Core i7-6700HQ 2.6 GHz
- Screen: 15.6"
- Memory: 8 GB DDR4
- Graphics Card: NVIDIA Geforce GTX 960M/Intel(R) HD Graphics 530
- Video Memory: 4 GB GDDR5
Apparently NVIDIA does this thing where to save on power it delegates less strenuous tasks to the Intel Graphics card. However the Intel card is awful. When I watch HTML5 video it glitches out occasionally and then crashes. (Yes my drivers are up to date)
Also natively my resolution runs in the Intel Graphics.. and I don't care for that. I'd rather the NVIDIA handle all of it but I don't see a setting where it will. I can apparently select which programs I want to run with which GPU but it doesn't seem to make a difference as it never changes from the Intel HD 530.
What I've done:
Updated all drivers from their websites.
Configured NVIDIA Control Panel to this:https://i.imgur.com/hPEj5dl.png https://i.imgur.com/hPEj5dl.png
Google searched the problem, I've found similar issues but no answers.
Checked BIOS for the ability to disable the Intel, with no success.
If you could help me how to change it to where my NVIDIA is the default display adapter I'd appreciate it!

Welcome to the club
Open NVIDIA control panel again, select program settings, scroll around until you find the browser you are using, force GeForce GPU again and save settings.
Repeat this procedure after every GeForce driver update.

Hello nancy123,
I understand you are trying to force the computer open the applications with the NVIDIA* video card.
Let me apologized for any inconvenience this issue may be causing to you.
In order to help you better I would like to get the Intel Graphics Driver Report. This link will show you how to generate it http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005848.html http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005848.html
Regards,
Fred
