Can anyone please help me? I am desperate. I can't seem to fix it. Nvidia is enabled by default

Hello @shakolan

I not remember exactly what I did (I had few read on Arch and other stuff but I will try to add here all my configuration in case it help. I use Debian in case it can help too.

# cat /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf 
install nvidia modprobe -i nvidia-current $CMDLINE_OPTS

install nvidia-modeset modprobe nvidia ; modprobe -i nvidia-current-modeset $CMDLINE_OPTS

install nvidia-drm modprobe nvidia-modeset ; modprobe -i nvidia-current-drm $CMDLINE_OPTS

install nvidia-uvm modprobe nvidia ; modprobe -i nvidia-current-uvm $CMDLINE_OPTS

remove nvidia modprobe -r -i nvidia-drm nvidia-modeset nvidia-uvm nvidia

remove nvidia-modeset modprobe -r -i nvidia-drm nvidia-modeset

The first file look pretty normal to me, but just in case I copy paste it.

The systemd service let you disable the nvidia pci bus, not forget to change the pci bus if needed. I really not remember if I did something more or if it will fix your intel card issue but I remember I had my nvidia card always up after an upgrade of Debian.

Good luck

Edit:
There is a big chance I took the nvidia disable service somewhere on Arch wiki/forum but I not remember anymore
