misfit410 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I did a lot of research as I was ready for a gaming laptop, I had a budget Asus with a GTX 960M that served me well but it was just time for something good (finally sold my old house). I went with the Gigabyte Aero 15X V8-BK4 (Intel i7-8750H, GTX 1070 ) and one thing I'm struggling with is that Geforce Experience doesn't seem to function and I was wondering if that is the norm? I know I shouldn't rely on an app to optimize my games but I'm a little lazy with it and it's a nice feature. One this machine even though I've updated drivers GFE just says it can't find settings for any games even though I've run them several times.. Not a big deal as everything runs and looks amazing on it, but it would be nice if I could fix that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Game Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I have the MSI GS65 Stealth (same cpu and gpu) and I've never had any trouble with the Geforce Experience. Have you tried uninstalling it and reinstalling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfit410 Posted October 19, 2018 Author Share Posted October 19, 2018 What was odd was looking up the error it was people in the Nvidia forums claiming this was the norm.. I had updated but had not tried cleaning the existing drivers first.. upon doing so the problem did indeed go away....doh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenO1683 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I have a similar difficulty issue with a G5 I bought my daughter that has a 1060 Max Q chip. I cannot get the NVidia Control Panel to install or launch at all. Is that still a thing anymore? I've tried new drivers and old drivers and I sometimes get the icon but it doesn't launch. Isn't the NVIDIA control panel the only way I can force games to use the discrete GPU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
