It may well be I do have two graphic interfaces. Once for the built in laptop display, and one for the HDMI port (which I am not using). The GT 630m may be meant for that HDMI port, but I get the impression it can display to the built in screen too. Unfortunately, I do not understand what a "contextual menu" is so I don't know how to try that out.
It is not the interface, but two internal graphics cards. On laptops are common have a Intel graphic for normal activity, and a dedicated Nvidia card for high perfomance. The switch normally is automatic, but some games has to do it manually. On my laptop, the game automatically run on Nvidia, but not the laucnher. To enable DX11, the launcher need work also on Nvidia card.

The contextual menu is the rigth click on the mouse. Go to the FFXIV instalation folder, go to the boot folder and you will see a ffxivboot.exe. Right click on it and you will see something like this:


On run with Graphic processor, select Nvidia. This menu only will appear if you have 2 graphics card. If do not appear, then you have only 1.
