Windows 11 & Links 2003 problem

[Echoes]

A computer with both onboard graphics and a video card will show GPU-0 for the onboard graphics and GPU-1 for the video card, the small graph box to the left shows real time activity. Do you see both? Which shows activity if so.

[Echoes]

The optimal objective is GPU-1 with the description Ge Force RTX 3050 as the only GPU you see and all online activities work. Once this point is reached we can address links again. Can't expect links to see the card if the computer don't see it.

The patience is on your end Mr.Burt. I'm just trying to help you play golf amigo. There are still some things i can't wrap my head around. Let's forget about links for a minute.

right click on a vacant section of your taskbar( blue section at the bottom of the screen with the icons) 2 options appear; Task manager and taskbar settings. Please click on the task manager and a box will appear, on the left please click on performance.

Now you see your cpu, then memory, then the disk which is harddrive usage, the ethernet comes 4th which shows data sent and received, the part where my curiosity is raised comes last... GPU....how many do you see and if more than one which is showing activity.

I see 4, 4th box is wi-fi

i don't see both only GPU-0. 3D is the only active one.

Are you familiar with getting into the bios of the system?

wi-fi and ethernet are the same thing... internet connection, wi-fi is wireless, ethernet is hard wired.

Please post everything you see associated with;

every letter and symbol on that 2nd line. I'm pretty sure it says more than 3d

on the performance screen i see right under GPU, 4 boxes, 3D (the only box showing running)
the 5 boxes on left showing something running.
The drop-down arrow under GPU 3d, copy, video decode, video processing video 1, engine,1,2,3,
overlay, GDI render, video processing 1, 4.
what 2nd line are you referring to?

[Echoes]

Those 5 small boxes to the left of GPU you are looking at, particularly the 5th one down... it also says GPU with a number after, then its description on the 2nd line, it has a 3rd line showing percentage of usage and the temp. in celsius.
The top 2 lines is what we want.

You see my computer has 2 displays, the 1st one is the onboard graphics, the 2nd is my Video card

I don't have that. you show 6 boxes. I only have 5
GPU 1 is not shown, neither is dedicated memory shown

[Echoes]

What does the 5th one say?

[dick_burt]

GPU 0
intel (R) UHD graphics
0%

[Echoes]

GPU 0
intel (R) UHD graphics
0%

So your computer only sees your onboard graphics. It sees no video card. click the windows flag and x, then choose device manager, double click display adaptors. are 2 listed?

YES, display adapters (2)
intel (R) UHD Graphics
NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3050 Laptop GPU

[Echoes]

If you right click the Nvidia one what options does it give? Hopefully enable is the 2nd one.
