well, hmmm, I bought an asus notebook with windows 8.1
It was ok, I installed all the windows updates, antivirus and some more things
then I updated the nvidia driver
after that, I entered the nvidia control panel and said "nvidia display settings are not available"
through LOT of research I found that the problem could be in my BIOS driver... searched for the updates in the website and found that a newer version fixed the VBIOS
I searched a lot and a lot and I fought the really good tutorial to update the BIOS for asus laptops in this forum. However himself advised to use a pen drive or something like that to store the driver for update, and judging by my researches I need to do some kind of "renaming the file for pendrives"
Re-reading the tutorial I understood that I don't need that, so I don't get, what I need to do to store the file in my flash drive and then update?

Not all NBs have newer VBIOS available and you shouldn't flash it since it may not resolve the issue you are having.
Can you also post screenshot of your Nvidia Control Panel? -
this is what appears
my bios version is 204 and in the asus site in the bios drivers of my notebook appears the following
"BIOS 205
Change Intel VGA GOP driver and VBIOS"
Oh, my notebook is an g751 JM -

Can you expand display adapters and attach a screenshot for it? -
Sorry for being late
things to do
You mean that my gpu is a 860m?
Well I also have the integrated graphics of the intel, however I don't know where setting (that windows 8 is a mess) showed me that my pc was running windows graphics something with only 256mb
My nvidia dedicated GPU is activated while my integrated intel no, however whenever I try to able it it freezes -
After all the freezing, since I abled the intel graphics whenever I enter the nvidia control panel it works perfectly, showing the driver version and etc.
so now I have both abled in my pc (integrated graphics and dedicated graphics), do they will conflict/affect performance? Because now probably my pc reads the graphic card and all
however do you still reccomend the BIOS upgrade? it clearly states some improve in the VBIOS -

Intel is primary, and Nvidia is secondary.
BIOS & EC upgrade are recommended because they fix bugs/glitches and provide enhancements. -

Something not clarified about BIOS update
