HP,
My laptop is currently up to date with your software (9.18.10.3324) for Intel HD 4600, however - not up to date with Intel's Iris drivers (15.33.22.64.3621) - what gives?
My current issue is attempting to load DayZ using the ATI (in Switchable Graphcis Settings) High Performance Settings, which i've set everything to default to "High performance" but it defaults to software settings (Intel HD 4600) instead of the builtin AMD Radeon HD 8600/8700M. I've attempted to disable hybrid graphics in BIOS, which takes away the option for the AMD chip once i return back to windows so that was a dead end. I've attempted to add the applciation as "high performance", which did nothing. I've attempted to update my outdated drivers to Intel's release but they don't "match my system"
How can I disable the Intel HD 4600 so the only video card running on this laptop is the Dedicated Graphics Card?
