| 1236202 | 2011-10-07 20:56:00 | I am about to add a graphics card to a computer that only has inbuilt graphics on the mother board. Once the new card is installed, should I disable the on-board video capability? | Bryan (147) | ||
| 1236203 | 2011-10-07 21:00:00 | Depending on how old it is, the onboard may get disabled, once you install the new one | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1236204 | 2011-10-07 22:05:00 | Make sure its a fairly new graphics card. Some of the older ones (mine) don't support Direct X 10) I'd also set a System restore point before I installed the new card. |
