Macbook Pro 15" Retina doesn't change to the better Graphicchip at Windows7

Good Morning,
i have the following problem with my Macbook.
In Windows 7 doesn´t switch my MBP to the GeForce GT 650M, he is only using the Intel HD Graphics 4000.
So in Games it is really laggy and not funny to play like this.
Games like Minecraft (in Fullscreen it change sometimes)
Chivalry (Steam) (only at HDMI)
Can someone tell me a way to change the graphicchip for ever at Windows7?
Or can i switch manual to the better graphicchip?
My Hardware:
Apple Macbook Pro Retina with 15"
GeForce GT 650M & Intel HD Graphics 4000
Intel Core i7 Ivy Bridge 2,3 GHz
512 GB SSD
16GB of RAM
Thank you so much for helping!
Greetings
Moin Moin,
ich habe folgendes Problem:
Unter Windows switcht mein Macbook bei Spielen nicht um auf die bessere Geforce und denkt ich will mit der Intel HD spielen...
Spiele wie Minecraft (im Vollbildmodus funktioniert es teilweise)
Chivalry (per HDMI funktioniert es)
Gibt es eine möglichkeit egal was ich in dem "falschen" Betriebssystem mache... Immer mit der GeForce zu arbeiten? oder Manuell umswitchen?
Zu meiner Hardware:
Apple Macbook Pro Retina mit 15"
Geforce GT 650M & Intel HD Graphics 4000
Intel Core i7 Ivy Bridge 2,3GHz
512GB SSD
16GB RAM
Vielen dank schonmal für Eure Hilfe!
Grüße

  • Can you use the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display straight out of the box, or do you have to charge it first?

    Can you use the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display straight out of the box, or do you have to charge it up fully before you can use it. I do not want to damage the laptop by misusing the battery.

    Attach the charger and start charging the battery to 100%.  The good news is that after you have connected the charger, you may start using the MBP as well.
    Ciao.

  • My macbook pro w/ retina display fell sideways on the charger and now the charging works on and off.

    Hey,
    So my macbook pro w. retina display fell off my bed (only like 1 foot though and on carpet) sideways on the charging port. Now when the charger is plugged in -- it sometimes stops charging like it's not connected.
    Hope the damage isn't too bad but would like to know what to do.
    thanks!

    First time I've seen this problem - can you power on while holding down the Shift key.
    And, yes, if you're within 14 days of purchase you can return it for a replacement or refund. I'd let the Apple folks look at it before deciding what to do.

  • Macbook pro 2011 screen doesn't dim all the way in part of the screen

    Hi, all--
    This is really puzzling me so I hope someone can help me out. My Macbook Pro 13 inch (2011, Sept.) screen, when you dim it about halfway or less, shows something like a yellowish splotch in the middle of the screen, the size of around 4 quarters clustered in the middle. It was to the point where I could easily read the text on the screen even though the rest of the screen was pitch black. Now it's less pronounced (it was really bad about 5 minutes ago) but the middle of the screen is still readable even when the rest of the screen is black.
    Does anyone know why this is, or why it might have gotten so obvious earlier? It was so bad that when the screen dimmed automatically there was literally this yellowish cast in the middle such that it wouldn't dim.
    Please help!
    Thanks.

    That's not normal, and I've not experienced this with two MBPs. I would suggest you visit your local Apple Store/Genius Lounge so that they can repair the problem. In any case, post here with your results; I'm sure fellow users would profit from the information!

    A Dell ultra Sharp would be a good buy.  Depending on what size you want:

    Otherwise, if you don't mind spending the money, and not worried about not using the monitor to its fullest this BENQ is an excellent monitor

  • 15 inch Macbook pro w/o retina display or 13 inch Macbook pro with retina display?

    Want to get a macbook for university. Going to be used primarily for work and casual use. Have a 32inch full hd tv to connect up to for watching movies etc, which is the better choice?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    I recommend a non-Retina MacBook Pro unless you need the Retina display. MacBooks Pro with Retina display are very limited and you can't replace anything if you don't want to void warranty. Also, repairs are more expensive, so purchase AppleCare for your MacBook Pro with Retina display.
    Go for the 15-inch MacBook Pro if you need good GPU performance. The 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display has got an Intel HD Graphics 4000 as the graphic card, and it's not supported in Adobe apps, for example. Also, apps that require GPU performance won't work properly.
    If you are not going to do any heavy task, the 13-inch MacBook Pro should work

    How can I make my first generation AirPort Express work with Mountain Lion? I have a 13" MacBook Pro (non-retina).

    Hi guys, recently had the same issue. You require an older version of Airport Utility to configure the older Airport Express. It can be found here.

  • HT1270 does installing aftermarket RAM into new macbook pro non-retina void apple warranty

    does installing aftermarket RAM into new macbook pro non-retina void apple warranty

    Only for the RAM which should be covered by the manufacturers/vendors warranty.  Now if you damage the MBP while installing the RAM then you may find yourself voiding the MBP warranty.  But ir does take a lot to do that.

  • Can I decide which graphics chip I can use in MacBook Pro with Retina?

    I have a MacBook Pro with Retina display. I have the 15inch model so I have the Intel HD 4000 as well as the NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M. My computers automatically decides which graphics chip to use which I now I normal BUT I was wondering how and if I would be able to choose which graphics chip I would like to use.

    Most of the time, your computer will switch between graphic chips automatically - so you're right, you don't have to choose. However, in certain situations, your machine will get too hot or you'll get too much drain on your battery. In that case, you may have to choose the chip: in that case, gfxCardStatus http://gfx.io is a good application to download. It's free.

  • How can I tell the differences between the new MacBook Pro with retina display and the old MacBook Pro with retina display by looking

    I'm just wondering the differences between the new MacBook Pro with retina display which was just released in October 2013 and the old MacBook Pro with retina display.

    Thank you for the reply! As you said they looked exactly the same, so I'm not able to tell the differences just by looking, right? I'm thinking to buy a new 13-inch MacBook Pro with retina display, but I'm not buying the MacBook in Apple Store, I'm buying it in other shops, how can know whether they are not selling me the old model of MacBook Pro with retina display?
