The change is needed in the operating system kernel mode graphics driver. Microsoft is looking into scheduling this development. In the meantime, provided you have purchased a platform allowing you to, the workaround is to disable the low end GPU so Windows uses the only one left. Today, Windows will always use the POST graphics card.

Okay, it doesn't apparently show e-mails....I'll try to keep an eye on the thread.

Hello all...I had this issue as well but have discovered a solution. If your laptop has any form of appropriate video output (I have a Dell XPS which uses HDMI) you can use an HDMI or other appropriate cable to connect the output to one of your monitors and use the DisplayLink docking station/connection for the other. This will restore your laptop's ability to use the discrete GPU and run GPU-intensive applications such as SketchUp, Revit, etc.
I'll try to keep an eye on this thread but feel free to e-mail if you have additional concerns. Hopefully this will help us all cope while Microsoft gets its act together regarding kernel drivers.
