Acer Aspire VN7-591G disabling NVidia GPU

[will0956]

I don't really understand how I'm supposed to do this.

I'm starting to think I'm in over my head.

Any help?

I'm trying to, but I can't seem to get it correct. Compiling errors everywhere (really, there's only two, but they have nothing to do with my edits)

The errors I get are these, by the way.

Here's the block in question (the $end is just the end of the file, don't know how to solve that)

Device (DD02)
{
Method (_ADR, 0, Serialized) // _ADR: Address
{
Return (\_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02._ADR ())
}

Method (_DCS, 0, NotSerialized) // _DCS: Display Current Status
{
Return (\_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02._DCS ())
}

Method (_DGS, 0, NotSerialized) // _DGS: Display Graphics State
{
Return (\_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02._DGS ())
}

Method (_DSS, 1, NotSerialized) // _DSS: Device Set State
{
}

Method (_BCL, 0, NotSerialized) // _BCL: Brightness Control Levels
{
Return (\_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02._BCL) /* External reference */
}

Method (_BQC, 0, NotSerialized) // _BQC: Brightness Query Current
{
Return (\_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DD02._BQC) /* External reference */
}

Method (_BCM, 1, NotSerialized) // _BCM: Brightness Control Method

Arg0

}

Tried that, and it fixed the first error, but I get the second one still.
