Hi,

I did a search of internal documentation that may be of assistance.

Disable Integrated Graphics in BIOS:

  • Access your BIOS settings during system startup.
  • Look for settings related to integrated graphics and disable them. This might be under "Advanced" or "Chipset" settings.
  • Save and exit the BIOS.


Adjust Graphics Settings in Windows:

  • Right-click on your desktop and select "Display settings".
  • Scroll down and click on "Graphics settings".
  • Browse and add After Effects to the list of applications.
  • Select After Effects and click on "Options".
  • Choose "High performance" to ensure it uses the dedicated GPU.

 

Update and Configure NVIDIA Control Panel:

  • Open the NVIDIA Control Panel.
  • Go to "Manage 3D settings".
  • Under the "Program Settings" tab, add After Effects.
  • Set the preferred graphics processor to "High-performance NVIDIA processor".

 

Check After Effects Settings:

  • Open After Effects and go to "File" > "Project Settings".
  • Under the "Video Rendering and Effects" tab, select "Mercury GPU Acceleration (CUDA)" if you have an NVIDIA GPU.

 

Let me know if anything here works for you.

 

Thanks,
Kevin
