hp pavilion 15-cc510nf doesn't use nividia gpu when plugged in.

At first I thought it was because of some messed up pre selected power settings but it wasn't that, it's not throttling either, laptop don't get hotter, it just switches to the integrated intel gpu , even after disabling that in device manager it still switches to that super slow microsoft stock video card that can't pull a resolution over 600x400.

laptop is on w10 v1803, gpu is nvidia geforce 940m on latest drivers.

if anyone's got an idea how to solve this problem, please share.

Thanks !

Have you tried to go into the BIOS and disable the integrated graphics?

If not, I would try to do this.

I tried looking for an option in the BIOS that disable the iGPU but didn't find anything.

I've read where if you right click on the desktop....you may be able to get to the Radeon control panel and disable it from there.
