Hi:

 

Below is the link to the product specs page for your notebook.

 

http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c04168240

 

Your notebook does not come with an Intel Skylake chipset (that would have an Intel 6th generation core processor).

 

Your notebook only has the onboard Intel 4400 HD graphics, so the nvidia graphics driver on your notebook's support page is not applicable to your model.

 

HP puts all of the available drivers on every model 14-n### support page.  Some models do have the Intel/Nvidia switchable graphics.

Is there any way to switch ?

You would need to replace the entire motherboard with one listed in the service manual for your notebook that comes with the nvidia graphics.

 

This would cost almost as much as buying a new notebook with the graphics you want.
