I am having Alienware 17 r4 running windows 10, I did factory reset , and installed all drivers but I am not able to find Intel HD control Panel, and moreover there is no option to switch between graphics in Nvidia control panel, even optimus technology has been removed

Just I now I seen the technical specifiactions of your model , and I found that dell released intel graphics driver 22.20.16.4836 ,A04 and for NVidia graphics driver

23.21.13.9125 ,A12 .

But I found old intel version 22.20.16.4708 installed and also NVidia generic version 25.21.14.1735 you installed .

so I would you recommend install the drivers from dell .

Before installing driver , uninstall those completely by using revo uninstall software , then install both the drivers

the intel driver you specified is for 500,p500,600 and p600 series but mine is 630. when installing the system gives a error saying that it does not meet the minimum system requirements
