when i run mhwd nothing happens…? When I made the os i didnt know whether to choose Open-Source drivers or Propriety drivers so I chose open-source - do I have to remake or something?
What is your goal?
to be able to have the right nvidia drivers; if i change the display to 144hz my screen starts flickering and dims, but i dont want this to happen so I need the drivers
This should do it…
sudo mhwd --auto pci nonfree 0300
On the GUI… well you need to apply it 
Error: invalid use of option: -a/--auto
What system do you have?
inxi -Fazy
Otherwise read this: Configure Graphics Cards - Manjaro
EDIT: sorry my failure… it have to be nonfree not unfree xD

after running the command nothing has changed - switching to 144hz still glitches, running mhwd did nothing, still cant run nvidia
You need to reboot normally or just unload nouveau, load nvidia and restart Xorg. However… for a Newbie the safest way is just a reboot.
oh sweet the restart worked! cheers!
