No you can't, unless you're a corporate customer ordering (at least) several hundred pieces.

Problem with discrete graphic card and DirectX 11

If I try any application to launch with discrete graphic card (nvidia geforce 740m) that using directx 11 it always crashes.
There no problems with directx 9 on on this graphic card.
There are no problems with integrated graphic card whether application using directx 9 or 11. Problem occurs only with discrete graphic card and directx 11.
The things that i did:
- Reinstall Windows
- Install latest driver updates (I also tried to uninstall latest and install recomended driver downloaded from the oficial HP support 'driver download' web page)
- different options on nvidia control panel 3d settings page
I also tried microsoft 'Direct3D Tutorial Win32 Sample' source code to build and debug. It is failed in function IDXGISwapChain:resent with code DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED and ID3D10Device::GetDeviceRemovedReason returns DXGI_ERROR_DRIVER INTERNAL_ERROR.
Is there any chance that is not hardware malfunction?

@Enegue ,
Hello and thank you for posting on the HP support forum. In your situation I would consider keeping with Directx 9. The reason I say this is your notebook is not a performance gaming machine. It is designed to be fore general use.
Some cards will notice issues when upgrading to direct 11 from a lower level.
Not to mention with your notebook you will want to stick with the drivers only provided from the HP support site. They are proprietary for the notebook and could be the reason why the directx 11 is not working.
Here is the link to your systems supported drivers.

T500 with discrete graphics card availability

Im close to purchasing a T500 but have 3 questions.
1.) The T500 with discrete graphics no longer appears available on the canadian site. Can anyone confirm when it is likely to return?
2.) I want to get the keyboard change to the T61 (I have used the T500 keyboard and it is not fantastic) Can I order this when I place my order for the T500?
Cheers
Peter

1) When you are in the advanced mini dock, the displayport is active, so is your VGA and DVI. I am using the displayport on the laptop driving a Dell U2410 at WUXGA resolution, and the DVI port on the dock is driving another Dell U2410 LCD.
However, if you have a switchable graphics card and you switch to intel gpu, then the dvi port on the dock is disabled, only the the vga would work.
2) To your question of your the laptop's vga and displayport driving these monitors the answer is yes. The VGA on the T500 should be able to drive a WQXGA (not recommended as the picture quality is heavily degraded) and the displayport can also drive WQXGA.

Windows 8.1 freezes while booting up with discrete graphic card T520

Hi all,
Hoping someone can help me here. If I use my discrete video card (nvs 42000m) to boot into windows, it will freeze on the sign in page or sometimes on the metro page however when Optimus is enabled it works just fine.
So I thought it was a driver issue. I went to Nvidia and downloaded their latest video card driver for windows 8.1. No help
Uninstalled that, went to Lenovo's support site and installed their recommended driver and all other windows 8 drivers. Again it would freeze
Booted into safe mode uninstalled that, turned optimus back on, and this time used Windows update to install my video drivers (intel and Nvidia both this time).
Didn't work. So I spent maybe another hour or so fiddling and after many restarts i finally found the culprit. It was the Lenovo monitor driver. As soon as I uninstalled that, everything worked fine and I could finally use my laptop with optimus disabled and discrete video card enabled.
Windows update keeps recommending me to update the monitor driver but if I do, then it freezes again so I'm just leaving it as the default generic monitor.
The reason why I made this thread is to inform and save potential users in the future who have a similar laptop to mine (t520 with hd 3000 and nvidia 42000m) with Windows 8 installed and they happen to choose to solely run their laptop with the discrete graphics card, remember to uninstall your monitor driver.
I am open to recommendations and other alternatives.

3.86GB usable with discrete graphic card????

the system tells me
memory: 4.00GB ( 3.86GB usable )
i have a discrete graphic card on my t510
and my system is 64 bits
how can this be happened?

Yeah same here with my G555. In both XP and Win7 it says 3g with 2.7g usable. But I'm not sure if my GPU is dedicated or not? In XP it only shows 700mb. In Win7 it shows 256mb dedicated and can share up to 1.1g for a total of 1.4g. Weird to me. But I'm loving Crysis on high though.

Qosmio G10 with new graphic card and pcb - Tools CD Update doesn't work

Hi everybody
I hope you can help me. Before a few weeks I received my Toshiba Qosmio G10 back from the support, because the notebook didn't work anymore. So I get it back with a new Grafic card and a new PCB. With my Notebook I get a CD which is called update Tool CD-Rom and an instruction sheet, where it says that you have to boot with this update Tool CD-Rom after you had installed the Windows with the reovery CD.
So I made it, but when I know put the update Tool CD-Rom in and I boot with it, the computer installs something but after a short while there comes a message that it is a different model and that I have to put a button to shut down the Notebook. So i made it but the Windows doesn't start.
Why is that so? I had everything done which was said on the instruction sheet.
Please help me

Hello
It will be interesting to find out more about this update Tool CD-Rom. Is there Toshiba label? Can you please write what is described there?

as you can see, absolute new hardware...
now photoshop tells her that her graphic card wouldnt fit the requirements, and allways switches to "software-sides" rendering.
this can't be true, this mashine is running hardchore grafic apps, and has the newest ATI Raedon Gra-Card (2 of them) which even now has a native support for open GL.
the computer has all latest drivers (no newer versions available)
so what to do?
i can't even tell photoshop manually in the settings to enable open GL...
i defenitally reached the end of my knowledge here.. i tried everything, also changing (as suggested by photoshop) the open GL settings of the graphic card card. no changes ...
need help with this one..
thank you already for your time and hopefully help

sapphire radeon graphic card
sound blaster exdigy
msi dvd
msi cdrw 52m

-12v -> 0.5A

Is it possible to set primary and secondary display with 2 graphics cards?

I have an Early 2008 Mac Pro with two graphics cards and four monitors installed. Does anyone know how the computer (or more specifically Keynote) determines which is the primary display and which is the secondary?
Also is there any way to change the scheme?
What I am trying to do is switch the primary and secondary from the two monitors in my office to the monitor at the podium (would like it to become primary) and a vga projector (would like it to become secondary)
I bought the second graphics card so I wouldn't have to switch the cables back and forth three times a week. All the monitors work fine, it's just a matter of determining or changing primary/secondary
Thanks in advance

Thanks Malcolm
I got that far – The keynote manual says that the display with the menu bar is the primary display – that works out fine. The problem is that the manual says that the display without the menu bar is the secondary (or alternate). But there are three displays without the menu bar.
What I would like to find out is: is there a way to choose the display without the menu bar to be the alternate?
When I try various combinations, there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to which display is the alternate.
Thanks again for your response!

Is it possible to get component associated with DefaultListSelectionEvent?

Hallo,
Is it possible to get component associated with DefaultListSelectionEvent, please?
There are multiple tables in my window. All tables (must!) have same TableSelectionListener. Problem is that there's no information about component in default list selection model implementation. When fireing events DefaultListSelectionModel use self as event source (see DefaultListSelectionModel.fireValueChanged fragment below).
e = new ListSelectionEvent(this, firstIndex, lastIndex, isAdjusting);Any ideas how to get component in ListSelectionListener.valueChanged, please? But don't forget that as a programer, i am the lazy. Thus implementing new selection model is not an acceptable solution, but class extension is :p
One idea is to remember models component in constructor and override DefaultListSelectionModel.fireValueChanged like this:
class MyGreatListSelectionModel extends DefaultListSelectionModel {
   protected JComponent boss;
    public MyGreatListSelectionModel(JComponent c) {
        boss = c;
    @Override protected void fireValueChanged(int firstIndex, int lastIndex, boolean isAdjusting)
        Object[] listeners = listenerList.getListenerList();
        ListSelectionEvent e = null;
        for (int i = listeners.length - 2; i >= 0; i -= 2) {
            if (listeners[i] == ListSelectionListener.class) {
                if (e == null) {
                    // Only changed 'this' to 'boss'
                    e = new ListSelectionEvent(boss, firstIndex, lastIndex, isAdjusting);
                ((ListSelectionListener)listeners[i+1]).valueChanged(e);
}This should work, but if there already exists some mechanism, such extension is just slowing app down.

Thanks for your help.
However I could not get the result. I am using following code:
public void myaction(ActionEvent event)
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
UIViewRoot view = context.getViewRoot();
UIComponent UI = view.findComponent("tab");
if(UI == null)
     System.out.println("UI Not Found ");
else
     System.out.println("Get Current FecesContext");
There is an Component having id "tab" is available on JSF page but I am getting "UI not Found" every time. Is there somthing wrong...Please suggest.
