Hi guys.

I read all of yours posts and I didn't know what to do, so I instal Windows 8.1 x64 and let Windows itself download all the drivers and it did. Graphics drivers, wi fi drivers ect. you name it. But, of course no option to switch graphics. Then I install Call of Duty: Ghost and I played it for an hour on extra details on 30-40 fps so my opinion is that AMD Radeon 8750M turn on when we run games, when Intel D Graphics 4600 works in "other time".

Hi.of course,but CoD:Ghost = directX.correct me,if i am wrong.

Hi again.

Which games cannot be played then? Do you have some list or something? Games without direct x or something like that?

In my case we're not interested in gaming at all, but we have customers who need all graphic power available for CAD applications. The ProBook 470 does have reasonable graphics, but it's not available.

HP is still not aware of the problems with this series? Or they don't listen to customers? For sure this is bad news. I'm dissappointed (more than I was).

I didn't hear anything from HP. I am ashamed that they don't do anything for you.

I wish i could build drivers then i made one for you.

I'm sorry i tried everything. Even contacting the ceo of HP.
