I have a similar issue. I've done everything from reinstalling nivida driver from HP support assistant. (that's years outdated, Hello!) I can't get the monitor to run off of my Gforce 930MX. I've disabled the motherboards Intel card. And the CPU defaults to generac graphics driver. I go to nivida control panel. That no longer changes anything. How do I make this model recognize the graphics card that was designed and sold with it. I do understand that there have been tons of updates from every third party vendor on the planet. And that non of you communicate a thing with one another. But there must be a fix. And my guess is that HP has one. Since you sell computers with nivida graphics cards. Because Nividia says update. And guess what. CPU doesn't recognize the changes. Don't ask me dumb questions. JUST EXPLAIN A FIX!!!!!

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
To get the answer to this question, your system will only use the NVidia where it deems necessary.
You can try this workaround:
Right-click your desktop background and select NVIDIA Control Panel. You can also find this tool by performing a Start menu (or Start screen) search for NVIDIA Control Panel or by right-clicking the NVIDIA icon in your system tray and selecting Open NVIDIA Control Panel.
To quickly set a system-wide preference, you could use the Adjust image settings with the preview option. For example, if you have old hardware that struggles to play the games you want to play, you may want to select “Use my preference emphasizing” and move the slider all the way to “Performance.” This trades graphics quality for an increased frame rate.
By default, the “Use the advanced 3D image settings” option is selected. You can select Manage 3D settings and change advanced settings for all programs on your computer or just for specific games. NVIDIA keeps a database of the optimal settings for various games, but you’re free to tweak individual settings here. Just mouse-over an option for an explanation of what it does.
If you have a laptop with NVIDIA Optimus technology — that is, both NVIDIA and Intel graphics — this is the same place you can choose which applications will use the NVIDIA hardware and which will use the Intel hardware.
