Please contact PLM Group Technical Support if you have any questions or challenges.Filling in Title Block details on a drawing can be tiresome and tedious. Now, after all, SOLIDWORKS/DraftSight should use only the external graphics cards and not the integrated graphics card. Observe the behaviour of graphics cards again (instructions in STEP 2). Press the button "F10" from your keyboard. Go to tab called"Advanced" select "Built-In Device Options".ģ. Continue pressing "Esc" button until you see this dialog. Note: You have to press "Esc" button right after startup of your workstation. Startup your computer and press ja "Esc" button repeatedly. You can search for information in Google with kewords "disable hybrid graphics lenovo"if you have a Lenovo laptop, for example.Ģ. BIOS settings are different in different laptop models. Instructions below apply to HP ZBook laptops. STEP 4: Go to "BIOS Options" to disable hybrid graphics. If SOLIDWORKS/DraftSight still uses integrated graphics card, proceed to STEP 4. Launch SOLIDWORKS/DraftSight and observe the behaviour of graphics card (instructions in "STEP 2"). When using DraftSight, add an additional, program-specific rule according to picture below.ģ. Select also the option "3D App - Default Global Settings" and select the same option "High-performance NVIDIA processor". Choose the option "Base Profile" from dropdown menu and select the option "High-performance NVIDIA processor". If you have "AMD" graphics card, same procedure should be performed via AMD's own software called "AMD Catalyst Control Center".Ģ. Instructions below apply only to NVIDIA Quadro graphics cards. ![]() STEP 3: Define the external graphics card as preferred graphics processor. If integrated card is loaded, proceed to STEP 3. Normally only the external card should be loaded. Observe how two graphics cards are occupied ("GPU 0" is usually an integrated card and "GPU 1" is an external card). Launch SOLIDWORKS/DraftSight and draw something and/or rotate the model. Check the option "Always on Top" to keep "Task Manager" window active all the time.ģ. Launch Windows "Task Manager" and go to "Performance" tab.Ģ. STEP 2: Observe the behaviour how SOLIDWORKS/DraftSight loads the graphics cards.ġ.

Here are the tips to resolve the conflict. Sometimes it might happen that SOLIDWORKS/DraftSight uses the graphics card that is integrated into motherboard (usually incompatible card) and not the external card (compatible card). Laptops usually have two graphics cards: graphics card integrated into mother board (usually Intel HD Graphics) and external graphics card (usually NVIDIA Quadro). SOLIDWORKS/DraftSight requires a compatible graphics card to function. ![]() Graphics card is an extremely crucial component inside the workstation. ![]()
