the guy did it with a 510p. maybe because of the new architectures some options popped up or something

well... technically speaking, both the laptops are identical except for the processor, and secondly, intel's igp's architecture has remained the same.. :/

i'm going to dig more!

yes the processor is different, which means the intel hd gpu is different and propbably the motherboard architecture itself is completely different hence the enabling of the intel hd gpu. its not possible for the y500.

Yeah I agree, even before purchasing this laptop I searched everywhere to find a solution to this but couldn't.

Since the onboard hd4000 is completely disabled on the y500 and no workaround found yet,would it be safe to overclock the gfx card on batteries to a level that would atleast yield decent gameplay for less intensive games ?If, yes could you give me a few ways to do so.

you cant overclock on battery, it will never exceed 135/405 mhz
