I had the problem with the missing configuration menu text on my laptop. The laptop is a Dell XPS 502 with Intel chipset graphics and an additional Nvidia graphics. The solution for this problem was for me to configure "TilesConfig.exe" to use the Nvidia graphics processor. The standard on the Dell ist to use the Intel graphics.

Hope that helps

abadu: I'm having the same issue, on the same type of Dell machine with the same set of display drivers. How did you, as you say, configure "TilesConfig.exe" to use the NVidia graphics processor?

 

THanks.

Right click on your desktop, and select 'NVIDIA Control Panel'.  Then do this:

This was done on an Asus, but the theory should still hold up.

I am having the same problem on a Latitude E6520,  I tried setting the TilesConfig.exe to use the Nvida card but it doesn't seem to work..  I really like the program but they need to fix this.

The problem appears to be a bug in the nvidia optimus technology.

We are looking into if we can detect this and fall back to gdi text rendering.
