So apparently, I didn't have Intel Graphics driver installed, but now it automatically downloaded on my computer after switching monitors. Now when I try and load up a game, it uses my CPU for rendering the game and not my GPU. It makes the game very slow and I assume that the problem is that the computer is prioritizing the CPU for rendering games and uses the graphics card as the secondary video adapter.

If you have the video cable attached to the video card and not the onboard connector then it should be using that.
