I'm using AutoCAD 2017 with my laptop - Lenovo ThinkPad P40.
At the graphic performance options I noticed that under video card autocad is using my built in video card (Intel HD Graphics 520) instead of using my dedicated video card (Nvidia Quadro M500M).
I tried to set the correct video card at the Nvidia control panel, but it didn't help.
Remember : without the difficult times in your LIFE, you wouldn't be who you are today. Be grateful for the good and the bad. ANGER doesn't solve anything. It builds nothing, but it can destroy everything... Please mark this response as "Accept as Solution" if it answers your question. Kudos gladly accepted.
We run into this issue all the time here. We just disable the intel card in the BIOS and it forces autocad to run the Nvidia cad. Those other 2 articles did not help us although they might work in other situations.
Why would it matter if the Intel is disabled. Every other application for windows knows to pull the proper video card. Nothing else is using the Intel. So by disabling it you are doing no harm to anything else.
As Pendean said, There is no other solution. The only way to force autocad to use the higher end card is to flat out disable the Intel integrated card in the BIOS not in Device manager. Disabling it in Device manager doesn't do squat.
