    Did a little research on your Laptop. Here's the problem. Your Laptop automatically determines which graphics card it should use based on a programming built into the NVidia settings.

    The Good News - Your Lapotop will play FFXIV as soon as we adjust the appropriate settings.

    The Bad News - The means by which to change those settings appears to be ridiculously complicated and will take a little while to decipher into reasonable directions..

    I'll see if I can come up with some reasonable steps for you, but it might take a while. For now, I recommend you try looking around the NVIDIA settings for an option that blatantly says manually configure switchable graphics or something to that effect.

    There is no nvidia gpu installed in your system. Maybe you should check the device manager for errors or look inside the bios if it's disabled.

    Looks like Kiote Corissimo found the reason why Yomu is having issues.

    Here Yomu, try this.

    I'm pretty sure when your PC boots up, hitting the Del key will get you into your Bios. I could be wrong though...haven't worked on this model Dell at work yet.

    Ok dont hold this against me if im wrong cause im on a cell phone at the moment.. Looks like you want to go into your nvidia control pannel, that you have open in that screenshot, and Select manage 3d settings. Inside these settings there should be a drop menu titles select program, you'll want to set that to the ffxiv program file which I believe is named ffxiv.exe. Then in that same window there should be a set default graphic drop menu that you want to switch to the nvidia card. Save the settimgs and ffxiv ahould force your laptop tp run the good card.. Hope it works, ill check back when I get home in about 30 mins
