Can't get past start screen and I am getting an Intel graphics card error.

I am having a problem where when it brings up the main menu screen it say's to press enter but I can't. If I plug in a controller then it works fine. It seems as if it is not recognizing my keyboard as I clicked to change a keybinding in the options and it didn't respond. I'm using a Nvidia 775M. I'm also getting the error message where it say's I need to update my Intel drivers but when I go to the website it says that it can't update them since I'm using a different graphics card. I also went into my Nvidia control panel and told it to use the Nvidia card but I'm wondering if it isn't since its still giving me the Intel error message. Has anyone found a fix for this? I've tried uninstalling Battlefront and reinstalling it but it didn't work. I'd really like to use my keyboard and mouse since I can't aim at all with the controller! NOTE: I am using a laptop

    @lardeck have you already tried to create a custom profile for SW:Battlefront in your Nvidia Control Panel. Go to your 3D settings and choose SW:Battlefront on your advanced tab, set the option to run this application only with the Nvidia GPU. You can additionally set the global preferences to run with the Nvidia GPU instead of the Intel chip.

    Please keep usu updated.

    If this is what you mean by creating a custom profile then yes I tried this and it didn't work. I also went into my global settings and changed it to use my Nvidia card but it still gave me the same error message.

    One other thing I noticed is that I went into the Nvidia control panel and added Origin to the program list and it would only let me us the Intergrated graphics and not the Nvidia card. Could this be part of the problem?

    It looks like you are on a laptop, do you have more than one graphics card, a standard one for normal use and then the 775M for high performance? If you do make sure that youi've set Battlefront to use only the high performance card and then go into your power settings and specify high performance, not balanced. 

    I recommend this since on my gaming laptop I had the same Intel driver error until I specified using the high performance GPU.

    As far as I know I've done this. I went into Nvidia control panel, Manage 3D settings then chose Star Wars Battlefront, then under the "Select the preferred graphics processor for this program:" I chose "High-performance NVIDIA processor". If this is what you are telling me to do then yes I have done this, and no it still doesn't work, I also continue to get the Intel error message. I also changed the global settings to use the NVIDIA processor.

    So I did as you said and preformed a clean install using the Nvidia GeForce Experince, however while installing it would crash on me and then when I got back in the program it said that it had installed. I then went to Nvidias website and manually chose the driver update that I needed and this installed fine with no problems, however I am still getting the same Intel error message as well as not being able to press "enter". I also went into the Star Wars Battlefront beta folder and ran the game as an administrator but this didn't work.
