On one of the OSes, the NVIDIA graphics card is not visible?

Question

linux

Good day!
I have an Acer Aspire V3-571G laptop with two graphics cards - Intel HD Graphics 4000 and NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M with NVIDIA Optimus. I installed the latest BIOS 2.21 from the official Acer website specifically for my laptop model. Fully formatted the drive. Installed two operating systems from scratch - Windows 8.1 and Linux Mint. Now this is an interesting situation: Windows sees only one video card in the device manager (after installing the official drivers, it changed from Microsoft Basic to Intel HD Graphics 4000), while Linux, meanwhile, detected both video cards and installed the drivers itself.
Q: How can I find this NVIDIA graphics card in Windows?

Answer 1

Install Windows 10 and don't write stupid questions on the toaster
