My new MBP 2010 won't use Intel HD graphics, it seems stuck on the 330M graphics card with no programs running at all. I also checked the power saver option for auto-switching graphics.. What to do?

It worked before I calibrated the battery, but today when using the MBP for the first time since calibrating it won't switch..

:-(
 
"CheckUp" program makes discrete GPU run 100% of time..

Ahh! I found out, it was a background process that ran because of the "CheckUp" program I had installed, I removed the process and whoy there the integrated graphics was back on :)
 
I think Apple should release an update asap to allow to force the Intel GPU to be used ! This is a serious lack in their implementation.
