I just purchased an Acer Aspire E 15 Notebook computer. I removed its OEM 1 TB HDD and put in a 240 GB SSD (never booted it with original HDD). I did a fresh install of Windows 10 x64 and installed the basic drivers including the Nvidia 940m display driver. It seems to be working well, but when I went to:
Settings>System>Display>Advanced Display>Display Adapter Properties
It showed the Intel 520 Display being used.
In the Nvidia Properties on the task bar I can select the "Phys X" device as the 940m, but it shows that the Intel HD 520 is the display adapter.
I uninstalled the Intel Display adapter and now it shows a MS Display Adapter in place of it. I have "disabled" the Intel HD Display Adapter in the Device Manager. I have "removed" the MS Display Adapter in the Device Manager. I have uninstalled the Nvidia driver and reinstalled after doing all of the above.
How can I get it to use the Geforce 940m? Is it using it but just showing the other display adapters?
Thanks
