I tested connecting the monitors directly to the computer (hdmi and mini displayport) without the dock and the Quadro is then used. I no longer get the above message, and the card is utilized in graphics intensive programs.

My current workaround is using the dock for speakers/usb extension, but I have to plug the monitors into the computer directly

Hello Deck,
The notion of not directly connected monitors is new in the anniversary update. If your driver doesn't implement it, then it will not work.
We are song some tests with Skyrim, because the tester looking at it lines to play but more importantly, Skyrim tells which card/driver it will use.
Can you make the Nvidia card the primary? The one that the POST/Bios messages are displayed on?
There are different configurations of dual graphics, even when using the Intel+Nvidia combo.
Kind regards,
Alban
