Recently I installed a Geforce GTX 765m in my Alienware m17xr4 (Windows 10 64-bit). After installing the drivers and booting up some games I noticed I had terrible performance and after using the MSI Afterburner hardware monitor it showed that there was no activity. So my laptop is in fact using my Integrated graphics card.
The problem is it will not allow me to use the discreet graphics whatsoever. I've gone into the Global Settings of the Nvidia Control Panel and set the Preferred Graphics Processor to the High Performance Nvidia Processor and have even tried applying this to specific games in the Program settings tab to no avail. It continues to default to my Integrated Graphics whenever I boot up a game! Any way to resolve this?
