Hi

My MBP keeps on crashing - kernel panic when set to the NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M

However when i set it to the Intel HD graphic it doesn't crash.

I guess i missed the replacement program ;(

Is there a way to lock it from switching to to the NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M ?

GfxCard Ststus doesn't work for me since and Every time i close application it jumps to the NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M and eventually crashes.

Is there like a nVram param , boot-arg to set variable to make it go only to the Intel HD card?

Thanks!

Ronen

If you don't want to pay for the repair, you may (or may not) be able to work around the problem by disabling automatic graphics switching.

Hi And thanks.

The Automatic Graphic switching doesn't really work. if i will disable it, Apps still change Graphic card - i'm on OSX 10.9.5 and

while goole loads the gfxcardstatus shows that card has changed.

Any idea ?
