My Acer laptop has both an HD Graphics 4000 & GeForce 640M in it. So I take it I'll be able to update the driver for the IGP from Intel.

I do have a question however, how come when I try to update the GeForce drivers from the ones that currently come with the laptop, that it gets stuck in the Basic visual style and there's no way to get around that unless you uninstall the new driver and go back to the "stock" driver?

[citation][nom]A Bad Day[/nom]Not a joke. It was on OCN forum a few days ago.Anyways, I still wouldn't use the HD 4000 for low-mid range gaming. Especially when only the high end CPUs have it, thus the HD 4000 is guaranteed to bottleneck.[/citation]
i'm not sure my i5 3317 counts as high end, yet i use it for almost every game and dont bother witht he card
