AMD Dual Graphics Will Not Work on DAI

http://hastebin.com/esetolizug.tex <-- here is my dxdiag I'm on a HP Pavilion DV6 running an AMD Radeon HD 6755G2 (aka an HD 6620G and 6750M in asynchronous crossfire). I have a dual-monitor setup. ...

There should be settings in the Catalyst Control Center to reset your primary video to the included, but below minimum dedicated device, alone, when Crossfire is acting up. There is also a belated Radeon 15-3 driver version, delayed for a couple of months (last one 14-12).

Got to ask...why do you think the game is only using bad card??

But to the point...this game is incredibly cpu and gpu intensive...

You have a 1.5ghz quad core that is currently splitting time with graphics processing...

Game REQUIRES a min 2.5ghz chip from AMD...so yours is just about HALF the speed necessary to run the game good.

Now on to the card set up....as far as I can research, the set up does OK with 2009, 2010, 2011 games and even then Black OPS 2 was giving sub-30fps performance then.... Looking at the performance of both chips in your system, they are WAY below min spec card, and I doubt even with crossfire magic they can ever hope to match the min performance of base required graphics card.

So basically you have pulled your 2010 stock honda Civic out onto a Indy 500 race and am wondering why you are getting passed....

Personal recommendation.....shelve the game until you can upgrade your system, I doubt it will EVER play at a decent level.

Min requirements of DAI

OS: Windows 7 or 8.1 64-bit
CPU: AMD quad core CPU @ 2.5 GHz; Intel quad core CPU @ 2.0 GHz
System RAM: 4 GB
Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 4870; NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT
Graphics Memory: 512 MB
Hard Drive: 26 GB
DirectX: 10
Internet: 512 kbps up and down

I know the game is only using the integrated card because that's what system monitor is telling me. I can see when both cards are or aren't being used, and when I test other games it shows me that the dedicated card is working alongside the first. I don't expect to get great performance, I would just like to see DAI take advantage of my actual GPU.

I also figured out that I had the texture settings on medium from when i was taking screencaps a while back, I set them on very low and now the game hovers around 20-30 fps (sometimes it dips lower, but not often enough to be too annoying). So the game is plenty playable for me, and I don't intend on shelving it any time soon. But that has nothing to do with my actual problem, which is DAI not working with Crossfire.

  Unfortunately, I don't seem to have the option in the CCC to set my dedicated device to primary video. This is the only option I have --> http://i.imgur.com/ROJIVR1.png And disabling the Dual Graphics merely sets my primary device to the integrated card.
  I'll check out those drivers, though, thank you.

    I would seek a manual from AMD describing CCC, since what you want isn't easy to find, it seems, however, it doesn't seem likely that the option isn't available in some manner, perhaps in the system BIOS.
