I am new to this world of virtual coins, but I am a Software Engineer.

I am having trouble launching the program, the x64 binary provided. I use the following command line:
cudaminer -d gt555m -C 2 -i 0 -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 -O user.worker:password

and I get this:
           *** CudaMiner for nVidia GPUs by Christian Buchner ***

[2014-02-19 17:01:32] Unable to query CUDA driver version! Is an nVidia driver installed?


I believe this is due to the Laptop specs, it has both a NVidia GT55M 2GB and a Intel card. I have set the NVidia card to be the default card but it does not seem to be enough. I can't disable the Intel Card. I have a Lenovo ideapad Y570, is a fairly good and powerful laptop, I would like to get some juice out of it.

Any ideas?  I am ready to donate my first Litecoin to the right answer
thanks!
