Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a first graphics chip, a second graphics chip, a detection unit, and a display unit. The first graphics chip has a first drawing processing capacity. The second graphics chip has a second drawing processing capacity different from the first drawing processing capacity. The detection unit detects a request to change over from an execution of the first graphics chip to an execution of the second graphics chip. The display unit displays a first window prompting to close an application in execution, in a case where the detection unit detects the request to change over from the execution of the first graphics chip to the execution of the second graphics chip.
