Hello Folks!

Turn off optimus.

 

Somewhere in your nvidia driver settings probably.

Since now, I have turned off Intel GPu but then skyrim/windows have find something which is called "Basic Windows Graphic Driver". You know where this optimus deactivate option is?

There's an ENB optimus patch, that enables the dedicated GPU as default for Skyrim.

I have ENB from Boris Vorontsov i suspose it's 0.113 or something.

check your bios settings for any integrated/dedicated gpu settings to make sure your nvidia gpu is properly switched on,

otherwise check the power settings in your geforce experience, may be you have disabled the nvidia gpu in windows,

and turn of any optimus related settings.

I have checked some things.

 

1. I have uniinstalled nvidia soft and drivers.

2. Run Skyrim only on the Intel card and it looks that in default settings the skyrim uses the Nvidia card beside that in the liuncher there's only intel card. There is a big different now.

3. Before this TechPowerUp GPU-Z give me some information that both cards are used.

 

I donno...there is any way to have the Nvidia GPU on Skyrim luncher list.

 

In main Bios I don't have any graphics settings.

Start by opening the NVidia control panel / settings. There should be a little icon at the clock area on the task bar, or you could try typing "nvidia" in the start menu search thingey.

 

Once open, you should see a list of different settings to the left. Under "3D Settings", click "Manage 3D settings". Then there are two tabs, Global and Program settings.

 

Go to the "program settings" tab, clicked "Add" and then browsed to my Steam folder, then steamapps\common\skyrim and selected "SkyrimLauncher.exe". On step 2, select "High-performance NVIDIA processor" and click apply. Repeat this for "tesv.exe" as well, since that's the game.

 

This would also work for any other game you might have problems with detecting your "real" graphics card.

 

If you don't wanna change settings for every game that does like Skyrim, you could instead go to "Global settings" and set the "Preferred graphics processor" to "High-performance NVIDIA processor", and it will automatically use that one for all programs that use 3D graphics.

 

** TLDR / recap / lazy way **

1. Open nvidia settings

2. Go to Manage 3D settings, Global settings tab

3. Set the "Preferred graphics processor" to "High-performance NVIDIA processor"

Thanks, but problem is that I have done this at first and...nothing new on the luncher list.

I get the Nvidia card on the launcher list by using enbinjector but still have problem, in game everything is red!!!
