    I purchased a graphics card and windows knows it's there, yet settings won't let me switch...


    I have been having this problem ever since i put the gpu into this computer, I can't even run minecraft with it, it's all integrated graphics so i get like 30 fps. I just want to use the graphics card that I went and found, saved up for, went to go beat the rush and purchased. I went through the effort to get a new GPU just to not use it on my favorite game? I have no clue why this happens but i disabled my IG in device manager but it made windows perform a lot slower so i switched my power supply to the higher option and it worked a bit faster.

    :)

    graphics card problems

    Hi,

    Your computer makes a noise or beeps from your internal speaker because it failed to detect the graphics card. What we can suggest is for you to try cleaning your graphics card with a pencil eraser. Here are the steps below:

    • Turn your computer off.
    • Pull out your video/graphics card.
    • Rubbed the cold contacts with soft pencil eraser.
    • Connect your video/graphics card back to the computer.
    Kindly note that this is just a temporary fix. If the case still continues, I suggest that you contact your graphics card's manufacturer.

    Let us know how it goes.

    I purchased a graphics card and windows knows it's there, yet settings won't let me switch...

    Store Settings "Update apps automatically" won`t stay switched off. WHY?

    In Settings in Store I set "Update apps automatically" to Off.

    When I go back in again it`s set back to On. Why won`t it stay switched Off?

    How do I get this stupid **** to DO WHAT I TELL IT and SWITCH OFF?

    What`s the point of having a Setting that you can`t Set?
