How do I prevent my laptop from switching to the integrated graphic card when it is not charging

How can i fix this? It's pretty annoying if I want to show anyone a game or something quick but then i can't because I switches integrated card have my charger with me and then i'm very laggy :/

I have a MSI GT70 0ne dragon edition with a Nvida GTX 680M I have tried to switch in the Nvida Control Panel all my settings to the "Nvidia Processor with high performance

any ideas?


Solution 1:

I got a similar Laptop so solution will hopefully be the same

2 thing need to be changed

1st

Control Panel, clicking System and Security, and then clicking Power Options.

Here change when not plugged in to performance

2nd

Open NVIDIA control panel (Make sure your drivers are up to date), click Manage 3D settings, Power management mode, Prefer maximum performance

NVIDIA

This pretty much disabled my integrated card.

If this fails jump in device manager and disabled the integrated card(Results less then guaranteed - Perform at own risk)
