Hey guys,
I've been poking around in chats on and off regarding this issue and I've refrained from trying to create a thread for it since it's not too crippling, but this is getting rather frustrating when I'm trying to actually join events and whatnot.
Simply put, my new laptop absolutely refuses to start the GPU for Freelancer. It does so for every other game, everything works fine - except for this one game. It just launches with integrated graphics instead.
What I've tried so far is:
- Reinstalling the game/mod
- Looking and installing all sorts of drivers, everything is up to date and fine
- Making sure that the game is selected as "Use high-powered graphics processor" or something amongst those lines in the Nvidia control centre. I even went as far as to just make every program use it when possible, but this damn game still doesn't. I tried it on the launcher - still nothing.
Does anyone have a solution for this? Google doesn't have any answers. Sanja has the same issue as well.
Thanks!
