Does your laptop battery charge only when the laptop is turned off? Click here to view the solution

Pavilion 15 Gaming Laptop
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Apparently, I paid 800.00 to use a cheap intel 630 graphics offering. I paid for a Nvidia GT 1050 Ti but it never kicks in. I tried uninstalling the intel, disabling it and nothing works. I'm returning this, the description is misleading on amazon’s web site, they're refunding me. Too bad, other than that I liked the laptop very much but for 800.00 dollars Intel should NOT be the primary graphics.

I suppose I was under the impression I would have the 1050 Ti as my graphics card for everything. Like my desktop, it always uses the Nvidia card. As far as enabling the Nvidia, I tried but it didn't take. Do you know of a way to accomplish this?
