Hi everyone!

I installed shaders mod 1.7.5 with Sonic Ether's Shaderpacks on my desktop computer and everything worked fine - it's a great computer, good graphics card, etc.

I just got a beast gaming laptop today, and I wanted to see how well it could handle the shaderpacks, so i installed it the same way I installed it on my desktop; thus, I didn't mess anything up during the installation.

However, when I load a world and then proceed to try and load a shader, the game just closes. I allocated plenty of ram, and my GTX 880 should be able to handle anything (drivers are up to date), but it crashes each time i try and load a shader. Anyone know what the problem may be?? Thanks

below is part of what i believe is my crash report:

In your Nvidia panel find an option called something like "Preferred graphical processor". Set it to use your Nvidia card for Minecraft.exe and Java.
