How do I switch from AMD graphics to NVIDIA Windows 10 laptop?
To switch from AMD graphics to NVIDIA on a Windows 10 laptop, you will need to make sure that the laptop has an available slot for the NVIDIA graphics card. If it does not have such a slot, then you will need to purchase an external GPU enclosure. Once you have the necessary hardware and firmware updates installed, follow these steps:
1. Download and install the latest drivers for your specific NVIDIA graphics card from the manufacturer’s website.
2. Open Device Manager in Windows 10 by typing "Device Manager" into the search bar.
3. Expand Display adapters and then right-click on your AMD graphic device and select Uninstall Device.
4. Insert your new NVIDIA Graphics Card into your PC or plug in your external GPU enclosure if using one.
5. Reboot your computer when prompted so that Windows can detect the new hardware automatically and install its drivers accordingly.
6. After reboot, open Device Manager again and check under Display Adapters to make sure that both devices have been detected correctly (your AMD device should be marked as inactive).
7 Install any additional software from NVIDIA’s website if needed (eg GeForce Experience) before testing out games or applications which require dedicated graphics performance from NVIDIA cards only
If you find yourself having trouble with any of these steps, please contact either customer support for help with updating drivers or technical support for more complex issues such as troubleshooting hardware installation errors etc
