Forthose who are using multiple GPUs, lots of them want to change default graphics card. How to change default graphics card Windows 10? If you are also trying to figure it out, you come to the right place. This post MiniTool will walk you through detailed steps to set and change default graphics card Windows 10.

In order to improve system performance or use for a specific app, a great many people are using multiple GPUs. Now, Windows 10 users can use multiple GPUs (also called graphics card) and set default graphics card an app inside the control panel.


However, lots of users are confused about how to set default graphics card. Some users want to set a dedicated GPU for apps. For this, how to change default graphics card Windows 10 for apps? Please keep reading the following content.


I have a PC that I'm trying to fix, and the problem with it is that it can't decide which graphics card to use. It has the graphics card that is built into the motherboard and another graphics card that is plugged in at the bottom.


The problem with it is that it sends the data through the graphics card at random and not through the one that the monitor is connected. I could have the monitor plugged into the external graphics card but the PC will send the image to the internal (built-in) graphics card that I'm not using or vise versa.


If that happens (when I turn on the PC) than I switch the plug from one graphics card to another and then the image appears on the screen. Event viewer log doesn't provide any information that I find to be relevant to the issue. Some issues with .NET framework, error updating (not connected to the internet), the PC shutting down unexpectedly (the owner just did a hard shut down when the PC got confused) and maybe some other things related to the hard shut downs.


Make sure that the drivers for both graphics cards are up to date. Outdated drivers can cause issues with graphics card switching. You can usually update the drivers through the manufacturer's website or through Windows Update.


Check the BIOS settings to see if there is an option to specify which graphics card should be used as the primary one. You can access the BIOS settings by restarting your computer and pressing the appropriate key (usually F2 or Del) to enter the BIOS setup.


If you are using a desktop PC, make sure that the graphics card is properly seated in the PCI-Express slot and that it is getting enough power. Some graphics cards may require additional power from the power supply unit (PSU) in the form of a PCIe power cable.


If the issue persists, it is possible that there may be a hardware issue with one of the graphics cards or with the motherboard itself. In this case, you may need to replace the faulty hardware in order to fix the issue.


I'd think that disabling the onboard video in the BIOS would be your best bet. Don't let MS make the decision for you. Pending your PC, entering the BIOS could be any of the Function keys or ESC or DEL. My laptop wil only go into the BIOS if you hold down the F2 key when you power on the machine.


It sounds like the issue you're encountering is related to how the PC is handling the multiple graphics cards. It's possible that the PC is not properly configured to use one graphics card as the primary, and instead is randomly switching between the two cards.


Configure the BIOS settings: Some PCs allow you to configure the BIOS settings to specify which graphics card should be used as the primary. Check the manual for your PC's motherboard to see if there is an option to set the primary graphics card.


Use the Device Manager: Windows has a built-in Device Manager that allows you to view and manage the hardware on your PC. You can use it to disable the built-in graphics card and ensure that the external graphics card is being us. Check for any conflicts: It's possible that there may be a conflict between the two graphics cards that is causing the issue. Check the Event Viewer log for any error messages related to the graphics cards.


Check for a software problem: Sometimes, the issue can be caused by a software problem. Check if any recent updates have been installed or if any new software has been installed. Also, check for any software conflicts.


Check for a hardware problem: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it may be a hardware problem. Check the connections of the graphics cards and make sure that they are properly seated. Also, check for any damages on the graphics cards.


Note that the above steps may vary slightly depending on the version of Windows you are using. Additionally, not all computers have both a dedicated graphics card and an integrated graphics card, so the option to choose a default graphics card may not be available on your system.


If you're wondering whether you can choose a default graphics card in Windows, the answer is yes! The process may vary a bit depending on your setup, but I'll try to give you some general instructions that should work for most cases.


First, you'll need to open the Windows "Settings" app. You can do this by clicking on the gear icon in the Start menu or by pressing the Windows key + I on your keyboard. Once you're in the Settings app, click on "System" and then "Display" in the left-hand menu.


Scroll down a bit until you see a link that says "Graphics settings" and click on it. Here's where you can set the default graphics card for specific apps or games. To get started, click the "Browse" button under "Choose an app to set preference" and select the executable file (.exe) for the app or game you want to configure.


Once you've added the app, you should see it in the list with some options below it. Click on the app in the list and then click the "Options" button. This will open up a menu where you can specify the default graphics card to use.


Look for the "Graphics specifications" section and you should see a drop-down menu labeled "Choose a graphics preference". Depending on your system, you may have the option to choose between your integrated graphics card (usually built into your CPU) and a dedicated graphics card (if you have one installed). Select the graphics card you want to use by default, then click "Save" to apply the changes.


Note that some graphics cards may have their own software or drivers that allow you to customize settings even further. If you're not sure where to find these settings or how to configure them, I'd recommend checking the website for your graphics card manufacturer for more information.


hey there , i am currently about yo finish my project , but the issue is when i am launching the game is on High graphic settings by default and it is quite suck in terms on fps , how can i set some settings so when i launch the game graphcal settings will be quite low then now ?


Me being an idiot decided to muck around with the graphics in SWToR. As a result - when I launch SWToR the screen turns black (because of a graphics setting I probably turned on inadvertently.) Is there some way to restore the graphics settings. (maybe delete the client_settings.ini file or something?) I am not a paying customer and apparently poor people are not allowed to contact EA for help for help. So if anyone could please make a suggestion I would really appreciate it.


Also note: I have nothing against EA or EA games or employees (laughing). Maybe I will let you join my guild thingymabob one day (big smile). Can a single person non-paying player form a guild thingymabob? I get the feeling I might need to make one if I want to take over the galaxy.


Mr. Owens, Thank you for that information. It will probably take me a while to figure all that stuff out. I'm still trying to figure out how to duck and dodge playing SWToR. I've seen other people duck behind cover - I am not sure if they are able to dodge. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain the guild thing. I am going to take over the galaxy - it will probably take a few years (smile). Another question if you will indulge me - I have never played the online version of SWToR before, only the PC game and I have never (visited the SWToR website until the day or two before yesterday). Do guilds control sectors in game - I ran across a message that "no guild controls this sector" last night when I was playing.


As for the information - I might only be a guild of 1. I remember playing COH, WOW and DND online (Paid subscriber) and if I remember right all 3 required other people to join in order to form a guild (I ended up having to pay people with in game money (not real money or the equivalent) in order to form guilds in COH and WOW) That was what I was really curious about. Thanks again for your patients explaining things to a complete noob to the SWToR universe. I promise to destroy your guild last (big smile). PS - that is one cute land speeder.


To create a Guild, you must form a full four-member party (each founding member cannot be a member of another Guild). The leader of the group will become the Guild Leader. In order to be a Guild Leader, your character must be level 10 or higher.


Once you have met these requirements, visit the Regional Guild administration office (located on Coruscant for Republic and Dromund Kaas for Empire) and pay a one-time fee of 5,000 Credits. Type in the name you would like your guild to have and click on Create to form your Guild.


Holly Cats! What servers? I had guilds on all of them but mostly played on Freedom. Sometimes on the RP server (can't remember the name off the top of my head - Virtue maybe? )I stopped playing when they decided to shut the game down - A truly horrific moment in history... I played for about 8 years. (one of the nice things about being the only member of a guild - when they pass the leadership on - it comes right back to you - big smile). My main character was Wolfgang Tao 50 scrapper Kantina/SR on Freedom. I ended up deleting a lot of my lvl 50's because they didn't have enough slots per server and I wanted to try things out - I also played the villain side which was a lot of fun as well and had guilds on several servers also. My favorite being the Goblin Army. (Sorry, I digress - I truly loved that game).
