Windows 11 does not detect my Nvidia graphics card

Hi,

I have been using Windows 11 for quite some time, Suddenly one day I see my secondary Nvidia graphics card is not detected. Its not displayed in Device manager (even if I select "show hidden devices").

Also, in device manager below System component is showing error code 10.

intel pcie controller x16 1901

I tried reinstalling graphics card driver. Driver reinstallation does not detect my Nvidia graphics card.

I tried updating driver for above PCIe controller. But is already up to date.

I have not changed anything in BIOS. I tried defaulting the Bios values but dint work. ( My Nvidia card is detected in BIOS, only windows 11 has problem)

I tried backing out recent windows updates, dint work. I again updated all latest updates and optional driver updates suggested, dint work.

Since the card is detected in Bios, I am assuming its not an issue with hardware.

I have been doing some research, and in many places I see the PCIe controller issue associated with detection of graphics card.

Please help me resolve this issue.

    Yup :-)

    I found the solution.

    I did everything, I did a fresh windows install, and nothing, downloaded all drives and nothing..

    FINALLY :-)

    Download Armoury Crate, its came with the TUF, open that up. On the left hand side, click on Devices.

    Then go to GPU PowerSaving.

    You will see Standard, Eco Mode, and Optimized. If its already on Standard, click Optimized, exit application, go back, and select Standard Eco Mode, and exit application. :-O And just like that, the NVIDIA GPU is back on my Device Managers. :/ SAD, not even Asus could help me out. They wanted me to send the laptop in.

Massive thanks to you, truly legendary and I was really hoping the GPU wasnt actullay dead or anything lmao. Not all heros wear capes 😎 But what a stupid fix for the gpu isnt it. ASUS really need to get their act together on this one :/ LOL
