Hi, so I've got an Nitro AN517-54, and for some reason the DE is running on the Integrated GPU, and not on the GTX 1650. I've tried bumblebee and optimus-manager, but when I install then my external monitor stops working. Someone has an idea about what I could try ?

Right now do you have bumblebee or optimus manager installed?

No, I don't

I tried both of them, but my external monitor dies everytime I install them
