Hi.

Which type of laptop do you use now?
1. If NTFS has no "boot" flag, Windows system can be loaded by Deepin Grub. Normally there is no need to modify partition boot flag at all.

2. Does Paragon support ext4 filesystem? And what type of partition table is used in your laptop? MBR or GPT? It is recommended to modify or format partitions in Linux during installation.

3. To disable LVDS, try this in terminal:
$ xrandr --output LVDS --off

"LVDS" is name of your internal display, all of connected displays can be listed when "xrandr" command

I think you are using mbr+bios. In efi +gpt both grub and windows entries both  will be reserved. Then in your cases, you should add windows entry manual. You can refer to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB .
