Dell Precision M4700 with M2000M

I have a Dell Precision M4700 and I recently upgraded it to an Nvidia Quadro M2000M GPU. Unfortunately I was met with the black screen. I was told and found online that enabling Switchable Graphics/Optimus in the BIOS fixes this but my laptop came with the AMD FirePro card and does not have this option in the BIOS. I was wondering if there was a switch that enabled these options so that I could use my new GPU. Thanks!

You have to turn it on without the video card. this way, M4700 will start with INTEL GPU ONBORD, and it will be possible to enable the OPTMUS on BIOS. after that, you can install the M2000M. theres no difference at AMD or NVIDIA GPU card original laptop.

@roneyrock​ Hey @roneyrock, I noticed that you’ve been helping everyone else. I wondered if I could upgrade my M4700 with an NVIDIA Quadro M2200 Mobile GPU. I appreciate your time and consideration.

@Marshall david williams​ the M2200 does work but you need to force install drivers (i think)
