Need Assistance with Gefore 9600M GT
Hey everyone.
I recently updated my msi GX720 laptop to windows 7 (it was running perfect on vista). After a couple of hiccups I got it running smoothly doing basic operations but was unable to install or run games. I tried to update my drivers for the graphics card, but it only installed a HD audio update. After looking around on my computer I found that it is now running on the Standard AVG graphics adapter, rather than the Geforce 9600M GT that is inside it. Been searching for how to change the graphics card being used, but it cannot detect the Geforce 9600M GT. I've tried forcing it to update to the correct drivers by choosing it through device manager but it just keeps telling me my standard AVG graphics adapter is up to date.
Any help would be appreciated. Details as follows:
