I discovered I had a similar problem today. Game was using my onboard graphics instead of my nvidia graphics card (RTX 2070).
Things I tried:
- Disabling the onboard graphics entirely. I did this by disabling the card in device manager in windows. I was unable to disable it in bios (no option). The game loaded using the nvidia gpu, but it was missing textures and all sorts of shit. I had to revert this change.
- Updating all my drivers. Didn't make a difference.
- Loading nvidia control panel and changing global settings and app specific to use the nvidia gpu. This didn't change anything wrt eq.
The fix that finally worked: I think it was the combination of the nvidia control panel forcing the nvidia gpu to be used, as well as disabling compatibility mode for the application. I previously had it running the app in compatibility mode for windows 7. Reason for that is when /camping the app crashes, in compatibility mode it doesn't crash.
