Limited GPU capabilities with 2 graphic cards on a laptop

Hi, I have a Dell Precision M4800 with an on-board Intel HD Graphics 4600 and a NVIDIA Quadro K1100M. I would like to do GPU computing but gpuDevice.KernelExecutionTimeout is TRUE and this limits what I can do. Do yo know how I can force the computer to use the on-board Intel card for display, leaving the Quadro alone for computing. Thank you

For Windows, follow the instructions on changing the timeout delay registry keys. Or use nvidia-smi to enable TCC mode.

As for preventing your laptop from using the Quadro for graphics...sometimes the NVIDIA Control Panel under 'Manage 3D Settings' will have a place where you can select your preferred graphics processor.
