Alienware GTX970M issue
Recently, while I was playing GTA5 , the Gefore experience help me to update the GPU driver which was GTX970M. After that, I suddenly jump off the game and everything went wrong. The device manger says my GPU has a issue of CODE 43. I tried to uninstall and install the driver again and it is still not working which it doesn't use GTX970M to play the game, instead the game use HD4600. Also however I tried, I just can't open NVIDIA Control Panel.

My cuz had the same problem with his laptop. His graphic card fried and it reverted to using intel gma instead. Even though windows detected the geforce card, the geforce card refused to work. We tried to force it to turn on via bios, and all we got was a black screen and had to restore back to default in the dark. Its fried, hope you have warranty on it.

Try uninstalling both the Intel Graphics drivers and the NVidia drivers. Then reboot and reinstall, Intel first then NVidia. That solves many NVidia driver issues on Optimus equipped machines.
