Lenovo ideapad Y580. It has an i7 3610qm processor, 8gb of ram, and a geforce gtx 660m graphics card - as well as a Intel HD 4000 integrated graphics card. I've downloaded a couple games and I going to play Skyrim and it would not recognize my Nvidia card. So I followed some advice on youtube and was told to disable my Intel HD 4000 from the Computer properties and immediately my screen goes black. I restart my computer and everything is black but there is sound. I am panicking right now. How can I fix this? :cry:

And all of this is ironic because my laptop was unplugged and that was the problem all along. :fou:
