    I can change the setting from "auto" to "peg" but when i "save & exit" it restarts my pc and since i can't have the 280 plugged while accessing bios, it resets to "auto". And the default "auto" setting prioritizes pcie over integrated, so i guess it probably wouldn't matter either way? Anyway...

    Hey thanks for the quick reply! I did connect the pci-e connectors to the gpu, the fans worked etc. The onboard gpu works (using it right now) but it doesn't if the 280 is also connected so i think it actually detects the 280 and tries to use that but doesn't give a display. I did also try...

    Best computer for sims 3 (and school)

    It doesn't matter how much custom content/dlc you have, the game still runs the same way, the graphics don't change . and the laptop you posted can run sims 3, but i would instead get something like this http://www.amazon.com/HP-Pavilion-17-3-Laptop-Computer/dp/B00F7TQ3Z0

    Best computer for sims 3 (and school)

    How thin do you mean ? By the way you don't have to get that expensive if you just want to play sims 3, people here will probably recommend the most expensive laptop, but if you wanna keep some extra money, i suggest getting a bit cheaper laptop than 800€

    Free to Play Games

    i know, but the thing is that if you get it now, its yours to keep, but in some time its gonna be paid so its not worth putting in the list imo like it says : Just make sure to act fast because On the House specials can appear and disappear at any time.

    tablet not working

    Same here, never try to fix something you just got yourself, even if you get it working, it might be damaged and you might still run into problems later

    Determining how many dead pixels?

    If one of the dots is more noticeable then i am pretty sure its more than 4 dead pixels, i recommend you take it to a lenovo store asap and let them fix it . (i am pretty sure that if for example you had 1 big dot filling the screen, lenovo wouldn't count it as 1 pixel :D ) PS. I think you...
