This has nothing to do with a software fix, unfortunately.
Most GPU's in Laptops have their HDMI port wired through Intel Graphics. You can check this by going to your Nvidia control panel. If the Intel chipset is showing up as HDMI then it won't work.
The Rift requires a direct access to the GPU.
Some things you can try, and have worked for others, this depends on the manufacturer so your mileage may vary:I do not see the prefer nvidia processor option, as my laptop only has the nvidia. I checked other settings to be sure it would used nvidia. No options in bios for that. Minidisplay does not work either.. it makes my screen go black.
- If you have a miniDisplay port on your laptop try and get a miniDP to HDMI adapter (make sure the adapter can support 4K@60hz and output be HDMI 1.4b or above)
- Check in your BIOS if you have an option to enable discreet graphics only
- Check in Nvidia control panel and select "Prefer Nvidia processor"
It seems that the HDMI is just not recognizing rift as a display

Can you take a screenshot of your Nvidia control panel, as in the first image?
