    If you disable graphics switching then you will not have to worry about this.

    I doubt it, if it is working fine in the 7740.

    Which are the most stable drivers for the 7730/7530.?
    I think is a drivers problem after updating Win10 to 2004

    Just an update.I think I goof off with the windows 2004 update.
    I get this error no matter which driver I do install.

    That's not an error, it shows up on successful installs as well and "status 0" means success.

    Something is wrong,because running i.e Unigine Superposition Benchmark forces the igpu to run during the test.Also I do not see any control panel or nvidia desktop adjustments.

    This is what I get with the latest 456.38 drivers,after performing a clean drivers installation.

    I understand that there is a problem, just pointing out that the message that you pointed to is not indicative of a problem, it's normal to see it.
    I'm not really sure what to suggest about your issue. If you recently upgraded to Windows 10 version 2004 and you think that could be part of the problem, you can roll back to the previous version from Settings - Update & Security - Recovery.

    I did install a previous version of windows 10.
    Still no luck.

    Just a quick question.I did reinstall the P5200 and it is showing in the bios,as well as in device manager without an exclamation mark once drivers are fully installed.

    Only 2 things are coming to mind now in order to sort my problem.
    1- Is it possible to fully install drivers with a bad installed graphic card?
    2- After just a fresh WIN10 install,is it mandatory to install first the intel graphic drivers? And just after that the nvidia drivers?.
    Is really mandatory to install drivers in an specific order after the fresh windows install.?

    The order doesn't really matter, the NVIDIA driver should install cleanly even if the Intel driver is not installed. (You just won't be able to use it for rendering to a display connected to the Intel GPU until you also install the Intel GPU driver.) The general suggested practice, though, is to install the Intel GPU driver first.

    As for what would happen with a "bad" graphics card, there's no hard rule there; it certainly could cause a Device Manager error. I'd be suspect of the hardware if you are having trouble with a clean Windows install. Fortunately, your system should be under warranty (all 7000 Precisions get a 3-year warranty at minimum, I think); call Dell and have the part swapped out if necessary.
