Hello , i was wondering if you guys could help me with this problem Sad

The fact is that , my Nvidia GeForce GT 640M doesn't recognize dolphin Sleepy

You could be wondering "What? sure you mean , that Dolphin doesn't recognize your Nvidia" Huh

nope , because when i opened the Nvidia Control panel

I selected "Dolphin" (as you maybe can see) and i selected the "High Performance...thing" Smile


Then i opened the Dolphin's Setting

But there still "Intel® HD Graphics 4000" Huh

Now some thing that could make you help me easier Tongue

-I restarted the PC - Nothing Dodgy

-I could run Dolphin before Sleepy

i think that's what i tried Undecided

It might still be using it. Check your framerates as different IR.

yeah , maybe but why dolphin isn't telling that now? because it did before , and othes games like DarkSiders and Skyrim makes the "GPU activity" thing glow , but Dolphin doesn't and it did before , do you think that could be because of the Antivirus? because i installed Avast yesterday Sad and yesterday Dolphin did all the things that i said , thanks! for you help!
Check your GPU clock speed with Nvidia Inspector like i did in this thread

(I know there isn't the Dolphin Icon , but i fixed it and still don't working)

and doest seems like if the graphic card could have a problem

still running other games like Skyrim
i did an update of the Graphic Card yesterday , and when i saw thath it didn't work , i unistalled and installed the GraphicCard's Drivers again

Do you think that my antivirus (Avast) could be causing this problem?
like when i downloaded Dolphin (i did it 5 times)

and i saw that before i had more options here could be that a problem?

if you need more information just tell me , i will try to help myself too xD
Thanks! Big Grin
Don't know why but it seems dolphin doesn't use your 640M at all
Try reinstall windows and then install driver . The new laptop usually comes with a bunch of bloatware
A fresh/clean install of windows is recommended .Well it does help the guy in this thread
