It only happened recently. I've been using the GTX 1660 TI in my laptop fine before. Now, there are some problems with csgo. I tried to update the graphics card drivers through Geforce Experience, but it failed. Then I thought about reinstalling Geforce Experience, but now Geforce can't install because it doesn't see an Nvidia GPU. In Device Manager, the Nvidia GPU isn't showing up under Display Adaptors, even when I checked "Show hidden devices." There is no "Other Devices" section either. The Nvidia Control Panel also can't find the Nvidia GPU. When I tried downloading drivers from Nvidia and installing them, it didn't work. Even though the installer said there was a problem, it still says my graphics driver isn't compatible with this Windows version and couldn't find the hardware. It says my GPU is in "extreme power saving" mode in Armoury Crate, but I'm not sure if that's why. I don't know what to do right now. Help would be appreciated. Armoury crate shows my GPU as inactive and on "extreme power saving mode."
