The Game Looks Like ****

[Onyxja]

Started up the game with my new gaming laptop, and it looks like ****. Also I can't put settings on ultra, something which the computer should be able to easily handle. Only if it gave me the options.
Some spec's:
Windows 8
IntelCore i7-3630QM CPU 2.40GHz, 2401 Mhz
RAM 8 GB
Nvidia Geforce GTX 660M 2GB GDDR5 VRAM

It says that I have Intel HD Graphics 4000, which is false, so is the problem that it can't find my graphics card?

Dammit something went wrong with the picture, this is the real one:

Now how do you edit posts on this forum, it seems less obvious than normal?

Nvidia control Panel and in 3D Settings for the game's profile, be sure it is set to Maximum Performance. That to me says "Auto" and only reading the i7 itself. May have to do some homework on how to set it up right. www.totalwar.com has a thread reserved for Optimus technology.

Thank you, for your quick answer. Could probably have done more research, instead of giving up after scrolling down the Technical help thread. I hope that Rome II will be better optimized.
