    My M11x alienware laptop is saying that it can not find a Nvidia card in the computer. Right now I am running off of the crappy secondary card. If there is any way to fix this problem, please let me know.

    Did you try to update the drivers for the card? The M11x has a customised dual graphics card system, and to my knowledge is incompatible with conventional nVidia driver updates.

    After looking into it further I found the special drivers and downloaded them. It fixed my problem thankfully, But thanks for your help I would of never of know to look for the special drivers for my computer because I did not know it had its own. Thanks again!

    As a rule, all laptop manufacturers (at least that I am aware of) have specialised drivers for their individual devices.
