Or as in the case of this acer laptop, which has intel graphics card mentioned, twice. it says Intel if it's intel, or, as in the picture below, nvidia if it's nvidia. And if it's intel like in my case then it might say something like 'Mobile Intel(R) 4 series express chipset family'. if it's nvidia it says like in this picture(from the answer to that question), that it's nvidia. That is, start msinfo32 then click display, and it shows e.g. But the answer that was given to his question(which may or may not be right for his question), is certainly right for this question. My one is a system with one graphics card and I want to know which is installed. There is an answer mentioned in the different similar but closed question linked to how to check if nvidia or intel graphics is being used that guy had a system with two graphics cards and wanted to know which a program was using. A way to check which graphics card is installed, intel or nvidia, so that I can then know which driver to install. I am wondering if there is a better way though. So it's not peculiar to any one particular model, and model number won't help either with such laptops, in determining which make graphics card is installed.

This laptop happens to be an acer, but clearly this is a situation with various laptops from different manufacturers. But each one includes software, which I could I suppose experiment with uninstalling, but it doesn't seem ideal to me.

I have had that in the past with a laptop, and the last time I was advised by the manufacturer, samsung, to install both, and then whichever driver was the correct one would work. Often times a laptop model doesn't indicate whether it has an Intel or an NVIDIA graphics card installed, and the drivers page lists both. My question is of a system with one installed, and asking which is installed. How to check if nvidia or intel graphics is being used but that user seems to have both installed, and is asking which a program is using, and that question is closed too. How can I check if my laptop is using NVIDIA or Intel graphics card so I know what drivers to download?
