elts090 · December 2019

hi all
im after abit of help.
i had a crash about 3 weeks ago where my gpu wasnt recognised after a direct x failure. i eventually got this working again after a reinstall but i went ti check my g sync settings earlier and they wasnt there?

i could have sworn i turned them on when i first got it!
ive since then gone from bils 1.11 i think to the lastes 1.19 i think it is ans i am on gforce 441.66.

i only have the 3d setting in the control panel tayher than the gsync and etc.
can anyone help?

i dont know if i have to edit bios with the updates to disable the internal gpu possibly? i didnt have to fo this before though.

thanks

When you have a G-Sync monitor, the internal graphics is disabled at hardware level, I believe. And I don't know of any way to enable it even if you want to. Certainly shouldn't happen randomly. Have used nothing but G-Sync monitors as primary screen for many years now, and never had this issue.

I would recommend trying some kind of driver cleaning software to remove all traces of your Nvidia driver, then installing the latest one via GeForce Experience or downloading manually from the Nvidia site.

As a last resort, you can always reset Windows, or manually format and re-install Windows yourself.
