AMD Radeon HD 6490M < Intel Integrated Graphics
stikman productions:
My computer has 2 Graphics Drivers, Intel Integrated Crap and AMD Radeon HD 6490M and yet I get this:

If it weren't for the Intel Integrated stuff I'd have shaders, how do I know?
I went into the AMD's Settings and set it to "power-saver" and went into Blockland = No change
Putting AMD back to full performance I set the Intel's to "power-saver" and started Blockland = Graphics was even worse
This must prove that the only Graphics Driver running with Blockland is the Intel one, and I know I can somehow change it to use the AMD one, but even if I go into the Cataclyst Control Center where it should set Blockland to use the AMD driver, it dosen't.

Make sure that your "non-terrible GPU" supports shaders in the first place.
Also, even though Blockland claims that it's using it, verify that you've configured it to use that GPU properly.
Altiris:
Make sure you are using the AMD graphics rather than then the intel. To check this click the little arrow on the bottom left of your Windoss bar and see if there is an icon that looks like a screen and is a mix of black of blue, is you have that then you have Intel enabled. If you see a small red orb than that is the AMD graphics.
Try right clicking anywhere on your dekstop and selecting "Configure Switchable Graphics". If you see that then click it and a program should launch up giving youths option to enable Power Saver (Intel HD) graphics or High Perormace "AMD". Select high performance and then wait a bit as the screen will turn black and then back again (it's switching graphics). Then hit OK
