Check BIOS settings again and try to install Nvidia drivers.

Also Nvidia chips on laptops are well known to break after some time, so that may also be reason.
 
hei
i found out the problem it was not in the biosor drivers.
i took the laptop apart and cleaned from dust and then thought that i might change the thermal paste and when i removed the heat sink, the gpu was overflooded with thermal paste not only the stone but the hole chip aafter i cleaned all the paste and put new one in, put it back together and booted. after that it works again...
