I got a major issue here which has been bugging me for like a month. it's killing me.
Pls check out my attached System Info.

The problem is, no matter what kind of solutions i used via Google, it just won't work, neither of my Graphic cards is working, the resolution stuck at 1024 x 768 forever. i tried intel HD 3000 graphics drivers, manually change Dev ID within the info.plist and all, totally in vain.

Would sb pls enlighten me here ? Many thanks.
My laptop is Alienware M17x R3, it's under my signature here, u could check it out~

The reason the Dedicated GPU will not work is because of the switching method of our machines. The only way to use the Dedicated GPU is by disabling the Intel 3000, but it would not allow you to use the internal screen.

Basically the dedicated GPU works by routing through the intel 3000, OSX does not recognise this switching method, and as such graphics switching will not work at all.
