For one, don't talk like a handicap when it comes to stuff like technical support.

Two, sounds like your computer is switching between integrated and dedicated graphics chips.

Might be better to consult one of the companies involved with these cards than us.

but it seems pretty easy, I just (accidentally) did something and it asked, then they changed. tada. :l

If you go to the graphics control panel there should be an option to have it on high all the time. If it isn't that try to change the power plan or make a new one.

Yeah, you got lucky there. Unless we know what it is we can't really help. Have you since opened the program that causes the window to pop up? Or did it just pop up randomly?

[Makingblah]

the laptop is probably plugged in when graphics are good and plugged out when they're stuff.
that's just my guess.

If it's a laptop, I very much doubt that it has an integrated video card and a dedicated video card. So it's gotta be a setting in the graphics control application.
Is it AMD or nVidia or Intel?

[stuntman021]

if it's intel integrated, a program came with your computer that allows you to boost graphics settings. look around for it

[Jetlok]

would this be it?
because I can't find anything that lets me change them.
