How can I disable intel graphics? G570

Hi!
I have a question like in the topic. I have a Lenovo G570 laptop with Intel HD integrated Graphics and AMD HD 6300M dedicated Graphics. I'm running on Win7.
I know that a similar topic was before and that the Intel graphic should switch to amd when necessary but I think it's not working right. The problem is with Skyrim. When I run the game's setup it automatically detects the configuration I possess and chooses the graphic options in the game. As You can imagine they are the lowest possible as it ONLY detects my intel graphic. The AMD adapter is not there (the list which appears to choose from does contain the intel only).
So, is there ANY way to just turn off the intel adapter and work on amd all the time? It would help a lot. I tried that in device manager but when I disable the intel graphics the screen resolution drops rapidly and aero theme from windows is being disabled. It sucks. As if I was forced to use the intel.
Can anyone help? I would sure appreciate that a lot.
Thanks!

How can I disable speed step technology on my HP laptop?

hi all
I have DV7 1273cl hp laptop (Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz CPU )
how can I disable speed step technology on my hp laptop ?
(I didn`t find CPU settings in BIOS , is there a special hotkey for CPU settings? )
thanks in advance

Hello krishna22211, welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you're looking to disable the NVIDIA graphics. I will try to assist you with this.
Here is the latest BIOS update for your notebook :
HP Notebook System BIOS Update (Intel Processors).
If you update and the option is not there to disable/enable, to still try and minimize power consumption of the NVIDIA GPU, you could try any of the following:
Disable the drivers in Device Manager, or uninstall it.
Go into the NVIDIA control center and reduce the settings from in there.
Create a power custom power plan, that reduces power for graphics.
I hope this is able to help.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

Can I disable Intel hd 4000 on HP Pavilion g4-2014tx?

Well I have a problem on Call of Duty Advanced Warfare because it seems to only recognize my Intel hd 4000 and not my Radeon hd 7670m. I tried updating both graphics card but it causes an error everytime. On the intel hd it says error code 31 and error code 43 on the AMD Radeon. Please how can I disable the intel graphics or update the radeon to the latest driver.

Hello @frztbyte99,
Welcome to the forums. I understand the issue you are having with the game defaulting to the intel graphics instead of the Radeon hd 7670m. To help me out a little more on this can you possible post back what Operating system that is on your notebook.
How to find out what Operating system I have.
At the same time you mentioned that you have updated the drivers.
If this is the case. I would do a system restore back to the time before you updated the drivers if you can.
This document will help you out with how to do a Microsoft System Restore for Windows 7.
Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
As well you may want to go and remove the drivers for both graphics cards and download them directly from the HP support page that provides the software and drivers for your system.
This link with direct you to the Drivers page for your system.

Hello tock172,
The only way I have found to stop that popup is to disable the HP QuickLaunch VolumeDisplay from the Microsoft Configuration Utility, But it will also disable the Clicking sound (I Think) ...
Click Start > Type "MSCONFIG" in Start Search > Click MSCONFIG in the Programs List
Then Click on the Startup Tab and then uncheck the item for HPVOLUMEDISPLAY (forget the exact name) then click on APPLY then CLOSE and Restart

How can I disable input on the ALV gridview?

Hi everybody,
I'm developing an application and would like for my users to be able to view the data in the ALV grid. Actually the only thing they may be able to do are delete rows from the ALV.
I set the ALV grid to editmode so you can insert and delete rows. But how can I disable the Insert functionality without losing the delete functionality?
Is is possible to just remove or hide the 'add row' button in the toolbar?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Wouter

How can I disable window snapping/docking?

Ever since CS4 came out I feel like I've been less productive in Photoshop due to annoying window dock/snapping. Windows are constantly sticking and resizing themselves in ways that blocks the work I am trying to do. Also the main image itself automatically resizes to feet the work space and I find this also an annoyance. This is my main question: How can I disable "sticky" windows?
In fact if there a way to get the old classic skin back that would be great, also...because all the programs in CS4 are missing a handle bar at the top of the window, making it difficult to find a place to click to drag the window around...which also wastes time. Sometimes the classic skin is visible underneath buttons in graphic glitches..
Finally, is there a way to disable hardware acceleration completely? My processor is fast enough that it can complete tasks faster than the latency of accessing the GPU, so hardware acceleration actually slows things down. Also the hardware code has bugs in it that prevents me from opening massive images (eg, 21600 x 21600 image crashes).

Edit, preferences. Everything is there to play with

Photoshop doesn't do a "memory test".
When Photoshop says "measuring memory" during startup, it is asking the OS how much RAM is available and what hard disks are available for scratch disks.
If you have network volumes mounted that are unavailable, then the OS may take a while to time out on accessing those drives.
The same goes if you have a bad USB drive connected.

How can I disable the memory sharing with the video?

how can I disable the memory sharing with the graphic card? it makes me impossible to run a software, grandMA2, on windows 7 installed and run via bootcamp. where should I look for changing the preferences of memory and video, on lion or on windows7? thank you

so what do you think. I run a software on windows 7 running via bootcamp on my mbp, but I can't open it. the software is compatible with windows 7 on mac. I tried opening it as administrator or changing the compatibility options, like running it as windows xp, and changing the resolution of the video. it can't build the window and then it crashes. on internet I found a compatibility list of the software where it says please do not use any shared memory for the graphic card. what does it mean? I have just to remove the check in automatic graphics switching? what should I try to do? thank you.

How can I disable Firefox from automatically opening on system startup on my Mac - unchecking the "open at login" does not work?

We have Firefox 10.o on our Macbook Pro OS X 10.5.8. I prefer using Firefox as my browser but my husband prefers Safari for now because of a long history of bookmarks and saved information he doesn't have time to re-do. He is tired of Firefox automatically opening when we start up the laptop, and even when we uncheck the "open at login" it still opens at login every time. He is about to uninstall it because of this. How can we disable? It does NOT show up in our account on the Mac OS as an application that starts at login, so we can't disable it there.

For those of you running Windows, I found this on another site. (Unfortunately, not before getting totally disgusted and switching to chrome.)
1. click start (or the windows flag button at the bottom left) 2. in the "search programs and files" or the RUN dialog box, enter "msconfig.exe" or "msconfig". 3. That should open the system configuration program. 4. click the "Startup" tab at the top of the opened program. 5. Under the "startup item" column, look for Mozilla firefox. 6. uncheck that one. 7. Click OK or apply. 8. click "exit without restart". 9. you're good to go.

How can i disable imessage from automatically starting up when i turn on macbook air?

how can i disable imessage from automatically starting up when i turn on macbook air? i dont know my imessages to pop up on my laptop when it turns on. But i dont want to disable imessage totally on my macbook.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
First of all, check that Messages is closed when you turn off your MacBook. This is so important because, by default, OS X will reopen all opened apps the next time you start your Mac.
Apart from that, when you go to  > Shut Down, or  > Restart, in the window you see to restart or turn off your MacBook, unmark "Reopen windows when logging back in". This will avoid that your Mac opens all opened apps the next time you start the MacBook, so Messages won't start automatically at startup

The windows of the Windows bar are already a form of tabs, so I don't need them in Firefox. How can I disable them completely from Firefox 23?

RE: TABS ARE WINDOWS!
The Windows bar already functions as a tab bar. Those tabs are called "windows." So, I find Firefox tab windows superfluous. How can I disable them completely from Firefox 23? I don't need what is essentially TWO windows bars covering up the entire width of my widescreen monitor's image! I already have a Windows bar at the bottom of my screen and, if I really wanted to, I could change ITS position to the top of the screen, so that it would LOOK like the Firefox tab windows bar. Firefox TABS are, essentially, a superfluous SECOND WINDOWS BAR.
Here are my reasons for why I'd rather use Mozilla's Firefox, than Microsoft's Internet Explorer or Google's Chrome. I love and admire Firefox for Mozilla's intent on good security, for Firefox's Personas add-on, and for Firefox's free use of the Ad-Block add-on which, as you know, has the distinct virtue of reducing screen clutter--the last of which is my motive for wanting to get rid of the SUPERFLUOUS Firefox tabs "windows" bar. I am dreadfully sick of companies forcing miscellaneous bars (mostly representing marketing campaigns trying to sell me something) into my browser (and down my throat) every time I download something. (In case you haven't guessed, I am deliberately referring to your Firefox tabs bar as a "Firefox tabs 'windows' bar," because TABS are WINDOWS!)

Let me clarify even more. The Firefox add-on you mention does not remove "tabs" windows. It only HIDES the "tabs" bar when there is only one "tab" in that window. It DOES NOT end "tabs." It does not turn "tabs" off.
I know this, because, even with the add-on you recommend, the "tabs" bar often re-appears when I open a link, which--for some unknown reason--Firefox defaults to opening in a second "tab" within the same window, rather than putting it in a new Windows bar window. This, of course, disregards what I want to happen.
I want to use my Windows bar to control my windows. I do not want my Firefox browser controlling my windows--which it calls "tabs." Can you tell me how to shut off "tabs?"
