| 805636 | 2009-08-31 05:53:00 | Hi, We are currently running our on board graphics card of a Asus P5KPL-AM/PS motherboard, we want to put in a VGA card that we bought, its a PCI express card. How do we turn of the on board graphics card in order to make the new one work, We do not want to get a conflict between cards. Cheers! |

| 805639 | 2009-08-31 06:25:00 | You dont really need to disable the onboard when installing a Graphic Card, just put it in, install its drivers and away you go - make sure you connect the monitor to the card not onboard ( that may sound stupid, but it catches a lot of people out). Then once rebooted if you really want to disable the onboard, go into the device manager and disable it. The only BIOS settings are in advanced / Chipset / Internal Graphics Mode Select. Disadvantage to doing this - disabling , is if the GFX card ever dies - your stuffed for graphics unless you reset the BIOS by removing the CMOS battery. BTW - its on page 2-14 of the manual ;) |
