If latest driver got problem, must use at least driver 258.96 for Optimus to work properly.

Also, A42JV owner with 335m updated with latest driver have no problem except 1 person. He think
his laptop got problem. Hopefully TongCN laptop is working properly.

Tried with other games like Starcraft 2, Bioshock 2, Just Cause 2, Left 4 Dead 1 & 2 (<<-- Didn't even white list), Portal.
All seems no problem except Red Alert 3 Uprising sad.gif

It was working fine when i was using 257.30 Driver. Now using 258.96 since 260.89 giving me headache.

Thanks.

Oh, I never use 257.30 before. Me straight using 258.96 and playing Red Alert 3 Uprising is no problem.
I start RA3 Uprising by right click, then select Nvidia graphic card.

So are you still have problem with 258.96?

Yea, i also tried manually click on nvidia GPU, still same problem sad.gif
Alt + tab out and check Nvidia GPU activity, it shows "NONE".
I played through steam which other games works fine.

With which driver? 258.96? Because it ran just fine on my laptop with RA Uprising. Hope you confirm
wat driver you use so that we don't troubleshoot with wrong info tongue.gif

258.96 WHQL driver.
Just now set the Global from Auto Select to NVIDIA GPU and ran the Uprising. Finally kicked in and ran the game smoothly ...
Somehow need to force whole laptop to run Nvidia GPU =.=ll

What's ur global setting anyway?

nVidia 335M.... I actually put this to my thread also that you need to set global to Nvidia GPU...hahahaha

glad you able to make it run..

Haha ... that means that even white list RA3 uprising also no use sad.gif

But how come 257.30 works while later driver wont, strange ...

Probably 257.30 setting is global already. Hard to say. Haha...

But Optimus really works. Just that nVidia need to make a better driver.
