    DRIVE Tech Demo stuck at certain fps. GTX M Series Card.

    My specs are:

    Intel i7 2670QM CPU 2.2ghz
    6gb RAM
    NVIDIA GTX 560M

    I have tried to run the demo with the High Performance Card however when I go into settings the only cards available are the Intel Integrated Graphics and "GFX Null",I have also tried changing the default card in the NVIDIA control panel,same results.

    I had the same problem in RoR and I would really like some help with this issue.

    I have this same problem, I use the NVIDIA GTX 635m and it just says "GFX Null", so I have to use intel graphics..

    Did you even read them? It's supposed to say Intel gfx and null device, it's a bug. It uses the GTX anyway. I have a 650m and it works fine if I select high performance GPU.

    Yes,you assume I posted without reading them? My game runs at about 5 fps,regardless of running with or without High Performance Card or the latest drivers or using the NVIDIA control panel...

    That is what I meant when I said I had tried the NVIDIA control panel. No change.

    What does the "Nvidia GPU Activity Icon" say? (If you don't know how to enable it check the wiki FAQ)

    Okay,I re-downloaded the game and restarted my computer and did what you said,now that shows using my card,however,regardless of what settings I run the game at,I get 17 fps,16:9,all settings on normal yields 17 fps,all settings on lowest,with a smaller resolution,yields 17 fps,clearly I have made a mistake somewhere,any advice? This was using FRAPS.
