Rainbow Six: Siege running on CPU instead of GPU

So currently my laptop is this one:

I've been noticing some FPS drops on Siege lately. When I open my task manager, I noticed that Siege was running off my CPU, not my GPU. Is this normal or is it a problem. If it is a problem, then how do i fix it?

Here are some stats I got from my task manager (Siege app only):
IDLE
CPU: 28.6%
Memory: 2,284.7 MB
Disk: 0.1 MB/s
GPU: 0%

LOADING
CPU: 40.4%
Memory: 2,287.5 MB
Disk: 39.5 MB/s
GPU: 0%

ACTIVE
CPU: 72.5%
Memory: 2,456.7 MB
Disk: 1.3 MB/s
GPU: 0%

Well....your BIOS generally determines whether you use the GPU or the CPU for graphics.

Most people choose to use the GPU because it's generally better.

In general, you can go into your BIOS and set this.

How do I do this?

If you go into the BIOS...look around for a setting that allows you to use the integrated graphics OR a video card. Usually it will give you a choice. One or the other. Choose the video card. if you didn't load the drivers for the video card....you will need to do this after you choose the video card.

This setting is labeled different things in different BIOSES....but it shouldn't be that hard to find.
