All drivers [intel etc] are up to date on my laptop. I've tried the 'windows graphic settings' in which you select which gpu to use for the program. Also tried the "NVIDIA control panel" route. None of them work. Steam always makes the game start on my integrated graphics card instead. Is there a way to force steam to start on the dedicated graphics card?
update: it was a problem with the dedicated graphics card not working with my hdd so had to store the game on ssd instead. reinstalled game on ssd and now it starts on the right graphics card.
