Good evening everyone, today I have a small problem because I would like to make use of my graphics card on a certain "Minecraft" but the game is running with "Intel HD graphics 630" instead of my Nvidia graphics card, it’s really too bad, can you help me?

    Hello, what is the model of your graphics card?

    Nvidia and it's a GTX GeForce 1050!

    Try disabling the UHD 630, the 1050 will definitely take over.

      Hello,
      uh no, we don't disable the igpu on laptops, since it's the one that handles the display. The 1050 will only be used when needed for applications requiring intensive graphic calculations, but the igpu will still be responsible for the display. Disabling the igpu will either remove all display or Windows will switch to a secondary driver for the igpu, and that will be worse.

      If it's a desktop PC, you need to connect the monitor to the graphics card.

      To try to force the NVIDIA graphics card, you can go to the NVIDIA settings (right-click on the desktop) > 3D settings, instead of automatic select "NVIDIA high performance," you can go a bit further in the program settings tab and choose NVIDIA high performance for each game.

      Set the power settings to high performance.

      Uninstall and reinstall the Intel HD and NVIDIA drivers.
      Reinstall DirectX

      More complicated, reinstall Windows.

      See the BIOS side? You never know if there's something to force the display priority.

      Me neither, it depends on the BIOS itself and its version, I don't know them all.
      Don’t touch it if you don’t know what it’s for (or ask here). But check on the "graphics" side to see if there’s something. I didn't say it existed but that it's a possibility.

    I have a configuration/security/boot/information section and EXIT; the only thing that seems to be a graphical setting is Intel Virtualization Technology.

    I have the choice between UMA only and discrete, but I don't think that's the solution.

      Indeed, this shows that there is no particular option. A shot in the water.

      In case, put it on discreet, then maybe do a complete Windows reinstall via USB key, I don't really know what to do

      Does it happen with other games?

    Is it a shame that having a laptop is what does this?

      Yes, because the operation of laptops is particular, this problem occurs regularly; sometimes the solutions work, sometimes they don't.

      You can try to do a BIOS update; maybe that could help (be careful, a BIOS update done incorrectly can brick the computer).

      What is the exact model of your laptop?

    It's a Legion Y520-15IKBN Laptop (Lenovo) - Type 80WK.

      yeah well there's no update on the Lenovo site...

      you might not have seen when I asked the question because I edited it after posting, does it happen to you on other games?
      you can try even though I doubt it, in the nvidia settings > physx > select the graphics card (normally it will show you anyway that the physx is linked to the igpu)

    Well, for example, Rocket League uses the NVIDIA graphics card.

      It's like the NVIDIA panel but for Windows, I didn't know about it.

        you can try UMA in the BIOS if you haven't already tried it

    UMA I'm not going to try too hard because I saw it was something for Windows XP.

        yes, and check if the graphics card is being used.

    I succeeded, thanks a lot! In fact, it's because I used the wrong application; I had to put "javaw" in the graphics settings! Thanks a lot for your help!
