When I connected an HDMI cord into my laptop to use my monitor, I selected the option to use only my monitor and of course my monitor isn't receiving and input for some reason. My laptop screen goes blank of course as it has detected the monitor. I have NVIDIA's Proprietary drivers installed, I read online that I may need to disable my igpu in the BIOS but there's no option for me to do so. I have reinstalled my graphic drivers. Idk what else to do, I dont want to reinstall Fedora from scratch ;_;
