C++ Why Direct3D11 Renders Black Scene When Switching Adapter? - c++

Question

I made a texting program with Direct3D11 which allow me both 2D and 3D drawing. I used rastertek.com sample to get 3D scene faster. Then I added my D2D class and passed it trough DXGI without creating 2D device. That was working properly. However, I realized that my PC has no NVIDIA driver so that is why I was using INTEL IGraphics by default. I installed NVIDIA drivers. Reset, switched my preferred video processor to NVIDIA from control panel. Then, debug and I got a black screen. I am not an experienced person. That looks like solving it will be impossible for me. What can I do to fix it ?

Answer 1

Resolution should be set correctly:
screenWidth = 1366; //MY PC HAS THIS RESOLUTION, MANUALLY SET IT.
screenHeight = 768; //
m_hwnd = CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_APPWINDOW, m_applicationName, m_applicationName,
WS_CLIPSIBLINGS | WS_CLIPCHILDREN | WS_POPUP,
0, 0, screenWidth, screenHeight, NULL, NULL, m_hinstance, NULL);
I HAD A SECONDARY OWNER WINDOW THAT IS WHY I MISLEADED. STILL, I DO NOT KNOW THE REASON WHY INTEL RENDERS IT DESIRED SIZE example "199, 132" and NVIDIA DO NOT. NVIDIA WANTS TO RENDER SPECIFIC RESOLUTIONS LIKE 1024x768,1366x768 (tested them).
