HP Pavilion dv6 can't detect GTX 960

My setup:

 

HP Pavilion dv6

CPU  AMD Quad-Core A6-3420M

iGPU AMD Radeon 6600M

DGPU AMD Radeon™ HD 6520G 

EGPU GTX 960 4GB

RAM 6GB RAM

SSD 120GB

 

I've done everything as the tutorial showed, installed the setup-disk-image and rebooted it, entered the DIY option, menu-based 1.30 but ... my EGPU was not detected. It was 'searching' for it i believe and nothing. I think that it only found the integrated one.

 

Does this notebook in special have a specifically option to enable ? I saw in someplace that HP laptops have the pci locked, so they only function with specific cards.

 

Thank you.

If this was applicable to your scenario, it would probably have told you at boot, and you'd be able to get around it by using a modded bios.

 

Google "bios whitelist" for your model.

Nando sorry I do not speak English very well so I will use google translator . So I followed one of its steps to connect the computer with the wifi card and then put it to suspend and replace the WiFi card for the EGPU , and it worked could identify the video card in the task manager , I downloaded the card drives, but Windows asks me to restart the computer for the drive to run properly, but when I restart the computer it 's black screen because of the bios withlist that does not identify my EGPU , you commented that you have to take this restriction with the your program as I do it? please nando my need much help of his instructions , I am waiting for the answer and also improvements know this going through a period of recovery.
