    Hello,
    I have A660 n13 with GeForce GT 330M, intel i3 330m and intel motherboard chipset hn55.
    So all of this component are compatibile with nVidia Optimus.
    But in my BIOS i have no option to enable or disable integrated graphic :/

    Is there any solution to enable it?



    I trying to flash BIOS with BIOS from other motherboard:
