    Hi,

    I have a lenovo Y410p.
    I went away this summer, and everything was working fine, but when I came back my Nvidia Geforce 750M graphics card stopped working.
    I have no idea what may have happened, as it was working before I left.
    Device Manager shows error code 43, and I have no access to Nvidia control panel.
    I have tried updating the BIOS. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the driver countless times. I tried the latest driver from lenovo, and from Nvidia. I clean installed multiple times, using DDU to uninstall.
    I updated all drivers, aside from the Nvidia one.
    Nothing works. It is getting really frustrating.
    I noticed the BIOS version is 3.08, and the SMBIOS version is 2.7. Is that normal?
    Attached is system information.
    What do I do?

    thanks in advance
