Switchable Graphics Trouble

[ConBrio93]

You could update to 1.2 for Amnesia, not that anything specifically has been changed that could help with this.

You could try to download a new driver from ati.com and if that does not help, check the HP site for new drivers. As it works for the other DV6 owner it is probably that he/she uses different drivers or perhaps some setting related to power management or similar as that is what usually controls what graphic chip to use.

I downloaded the demo off Steam. It should be v1.2.

And I'll try going to HP and checking for new drivers.

@ Pluto: Thanks for the links. I'll download and hopefully they will work.

Ok. Now it recognizes a card called GDI Generic. When I click Launch Game it crashes instantly.
