    Good afternoon,

    I have an Intel Core i7 chip in my laptop, which has the built-in Intel HD Graphics available for use. The laptop also contains an nVidia GeForce GT 555M card, which is (of course) more powerful.

    When I'm playing Dungeons of Dredmor, even though I have the nVidia Control Panel Program Settings set to have "dungeons of dredmor.exe" use the GPU, it doesn't register in the "NVIDIA GPU Activity" system tray icon as using the GPU.

    Either this is a bug with nVidia's graphics driver software, or DoD isn't picking the right card despite the settings. I'm using the latest graphics card driver. Could somebody provide verification or suggestions, please?

    That's expect behavior because DoD does not use the GPU. Everything is done in software.
