I have just installed FSX on a windows 8.1 system, however in the graphics settings I can only select intel hd graphics 4000 not my discrete AMD Radeon card. In the AMD switchable graphics I have set FSX to high performance. Also I have checked in device manager and according to windows the AMD card is working fine. So why does FSX not recognise my AMD card?
