I've found the prob, not the solution (not using ndivia card

Post » Thu Nov 26, 2015 8:11 pm

OK, so after not being able to run FO4 because it crashes when I try to start a new game I realized a few things. It was the Intel driver crashing. I also remembered that a few weeks ago I suddenly couldn't see underwater in Skyrim. So after much installing and uninstalling of drivers to no avail I ran Skyrim from Steam rather than SKSE. It detected settings as low and shows only my Intel card.

The nVidia control panel shows that my nVidea card should be being used but it isn't. I've tried the newest and previous drivers for my card to no avail. Everthing in my system says my NV card is OK and set to work but niether Skyrim or FO4 seem to see it.

Help please!

OK, so rolling the drivers back a few more versions has fixed Skyrim, now shows my nVidia card and detects HIGH settings. Still no go with FO4, detects low and crashes. Unfortunatly it does not show what cards it sees.

Edit:

further proof FO4 is not seeing my Vidia card

in the SkrimPrefs.ini

sD3DDevice="NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M "

in the Fallout4Prefs.ini

sD3DDevice="Intel? HD Graphics 4000"

Tried changing the setting and making read only. Didn't work

Since I don't meet the min specs Bethesda basically told me to **** off. Last game I buy from you guys. I would get it if the game actually saw my card and ran badly but it isn't even using my graphics card. Beth was the last developer I had respect for, maybe because I never had to deal with their support before.
