Hi @jalle656
Try getting into BIOS on startup by pressing the F2 key shortly after turning the laptop on and check if the laptop display is working OK.
There won't be a display on an external monitor when in BIOS because you need Windows to be loaded for the external monitor to work (with either GPU)
You only have a short period of time between starting the laptop and it boots into Windows to press the key. If you miss, it will boot and you will have to shutdown and start again.
I'm wondering if there's a problem with the Nvidia GPU .
The laptop has two GPUs, the integrated Intel GPU and the discrete Nvidia GPU.
The Nvidia is not used until Windows boots and loads the drivers whereas the BIOS always uses the Intel GPU.
If you can't get into BIOS with a display then there's a motherboard problem

Hi @jalle656,
Connect an external monitor (TV?) to the laptop's HDMI port and check if there is a display OK on the monitor when you turn on the laptop and it has booted into Windows.
Press the F8 key a few times to toggle between showing the laptop screen only, the external display only or both on together.
If there is no display at all on the external monitor , the laptop may not even be passing POST (Power On Self Test). Are any of the lights on the laptop e.g. Caps light or Power light blinking at all?

I added a second display, and the display recognizes that a device has been added - the external display just is black, nothing is shown on it even though I toggle the F8-key. The Caps light and power light work normally. Thanks for your answer!
