Hi When123,

You have an optimus based laptop. This means you need to install the NVIDIA driver and also bumblebee which handles the switch between the NVIDIA 850M and HD 4600.

Follow the guide below. Read the first page and then follow the guide on post 25

Edit: You may need the latest and greatest NVIDIA drivers to support that newer card, not the ones mentioned in the guide. I have not checked the change logs.
