My gpu not recognized by windows

[iLoveRAM]

I have a toshiba laptop with nvidia gt740m.
I ran gpu-z and dixiag and they showed intel HD 4000 graphics.I installed geforce experience and it showed gt740m.Also the games i played recognize intel HD graphics.I didnt try to run graphics intensive games but the games were running well on highest settings at 60fps,but im not sure that intel HD graphics could do that.Is my gpu working but not showed by windows or am i using intel HD graphics?

I dont know exactly, but Im sure you have to set the game to use the gt740m in nvidia control panel, so it doesnt default to the intel graphics.

I can only assume it is not connected properly in some way although since it is a laptop is is doubtful. This happened to me on my PC a couple of times where the graphics card was very slightly out of place and Intel HD4000 graphics will load up. Or it might be a BIOS issue and all you need to do is update it. I am not sure how it works with laptops. Do Is there anywhere in the desktop where you can see that the GPU is showing up?

Love your nickname...

It can be a Driver issue too, try to reinstall the correct driver and then enter into the bios to check which graphic chip is used

Hmm i did check nvidia control panel and i can adjust what games should i run with intergrated graphics and what games should i run with nvidia high performance graphics processor.

But is there a way so that windows could recognize it(i want to check my system score at system propteries )
