    Can you be a bit clearer what the problem is? Are you having issues with enduro switching between graphics or does the radeon not work at all?

    Check the enduro drivers at amd website. Basically to save power your laptop will only switch over to the amd once a certain threshold of demand is reached. There might be a setting in your bios to force it to run from the amd.

    Enduro switching is a well known issue though it's the main reason why I haven't bought a laptop post sandybridge.

    Go to desktop -> right mouse click -> desktop/screen settings -> select your videocard. Or select it in Intel HD Graphics settings.

    My advise: don't buy a Dell next time. You are better off with a Asus, Lenovo or a Macbook.

    my bios aint got that either, i wished there was a workaround to this ... when i plug in my 46' TV, i get such a low framerate because it gets powered by the integrated graphics :/

    OT though, if you installed drivers propperly there should be an option to select the correct one - i only know how it works with nvidia tho
