Morrowind on the Asus ROG
-
There is an overhaul mod for morrowind that fixes the widescreen issue. I'm not sure about it not recognizing the correct graphics card.

Go into you System Devices and verify that it recognizes the better GPU. Then go get drivers from here; http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us , And then try again. Some older games also have trouble with mobile chips.
-
Check the GOG forums - they specialize in getting old games up and running on modern systems.
-
Also, what happens if you right click on the game shortcut and tell it to run with the NVIDIA Graphics card?

I had an interesting issue where Windows 10 forced a "Mirage Driver" in front of my nVidia card and everything went to pixelated crapola.
A reboot and it got its crap together. Irritating none the less.

+1 for the drivers from nVidia.
Also, clean install the new drivers.

You need to install the Morrowind Overhaul 3.0, as well as make sure you have Full screen mode and pixes shading off in the settings. I remember seeing someone with a similar issue on the Steam forums and it resolved the issue for them.

Thanks, I'll take a look for that.

Other games use it, just not Morrowind.

Nothing. It acts like it will, but once MW fires up, it goes to the Intel HD device instead.
