Hello everyone. I’ve got a problem with my laptop which can be easily described as: “Some applications won’t work on my discrete videocard, showing black screen”. And I even know a solution: “Reinstall your Windows”. But still, before I’ll do this, I wanna try understanding what caused my issue.
So, I’ve got a laptop: Lenovo ideapad Y580
A few month ago I faced a problem, my Adobe Lightroom started looking like this:

Lightroom is using my 660m to accelerate its performance. If lunched w/o acceleration or on Intel 4000, all is ok, but on 660m I’m getting black screen.
Same problem with recent System Shock demo. On 660m I’m getting black screen, while I hear sound and can press buttons.
And same thing in latest 3dmark:

Just black screen and possibility to press buttons.
But other games and applications work just fine on 660m. Even Lightroom worked perfectly earlier this year.
I just don’t know what has changed in my computer, so i started getting such problems.
Things I’ve tried:
Delete Nvidia driver and install one from windows updated
Install latest Nvidia driver from official site with clean setup
Change build of Windows (its easy since I’m sitting in TH program)
Update Intel driver
Nothing of this helped…
Any advice?
