Hi,

Your dv6-6070 should have 2 small letters after the main Model No. ( ie dv6-6070ca ) - what are they?

What operating system are you using?

Hi,

Shut down the notebook.  Tap away at f10 as soon as you press the power button to access the bios menu.  Under the System Configuration tab, look for the option to enable 'Switchable Graphics Fixed Mode' - enable this and remember to press f10 and select yes to save this setting.

If you do not see this option it means you will first need to apply the bios update on the link below.

After the update has been applied, and the notebook has loaded into Windows, shut it down again and enter your bios menu again and you should find the option is now available.

Hi,

The option should be available with the latest bios level - can you confirm your current bios level is F.1A

Hi,

It actually looks like you won't have this option after all - see the solution Here.

is there any other way i can do to disable the intel hd display adapter , or to unite the 2 display adapters , because some games don't work , except on one united display card or , only one display card
