Good evening, I am writing to ask for support in starting simulations on the Ansys Discovery program. When I open the program I can import a geometry and modify it, but I cannot access the "Explore" mode of the program. Inside the notification panel I see an error message: "Graphics device vendor (AMD) is not supported", even though my laptop has a 4 GB Nvidia graphics card in addition to an AMD card. I have already tried to change the GPU used by the program in the Windows settings, but nothing has changed.

Hi, 

You can please check go through the hardware requirements  Ansys Discovery Hardware Requirements (2024 R2) | Ansys Knowledge

Try below settings from Nvidia Control Panel and check if resolves the issue. 

Go to Nvidia Control Panel >> Manage 3D Settings >> Program settings >> Click on Add and select Discovery Program >> Set High performance NVIDIA processor and apply the settings.

Thanks and Regards
