Good morning. I have a NP700Z5A-S01. Its a Samsung I7 with a HD Graphics 4000 and a Nvidia gforce gt 640m 1gb. Recently i just format my computer and i installed everything from the samsung drivers ( http://www.samsung.com/ca/support/model/NP700Z5A-S01CA-downloads?isManualDownload=true NP700Z5AH - DOWNLOADS | SUPPORT | SAMSUNG ). The problem is after i got this computer formatted my games are not running properly any more. It its not my drivers because at my device manager everything is right. Im using Windows 7 64bits. And im positive that some sort of conflict is happening because when i run my games seems that there is no gforce running. Anybody could help me?

Hello Alf,

It is important to mention that your computer has switchable graphics. This means that you® compute® uses the Intel ® HD graphics resources for some tasks and the Nvida Graphics for other tasks.

From our side, you can download the latest Intel ® graphics driver for your computer at the following link:

The link above is a generic driver. If you encounter problems during the installation, I recommend you contacting Samsung so that they can provide the correct configuration of the unit.
