Disable integrated video? *comp thread*

makist · 02-13-2006, 06:49 PM

I just put a 7800 gtx in my system and was previous using the integrated video off of the motherboard.. I unstialled the drivers, but do I need to do anything in the BIOS or something to actually disable the video on the motherboard so it isn't rendering or anything? In the manual it said I needed to diable the integrated video for my gtx. Thanks in advance..

It could be in the BIOS.
It could be a jumper on the motherboard.

(could be both!)

RTFM, and you shall find it.

is it necessary? If not, would you recommend it? Comp runs ok now.

Oh, your 7800 is running fine. Good, most modern motherboards will detect and fix all that junk for you, as it seems yours did.

If all is fine, you have two choices:
1) leave it be
2) go into the BIOS and turn off integrated video (if you really want to)

You should be fine either way. I wouldn't worry about the integrated graphics doing any rendering: it's apparently turned off.

If I leave it on though, my computer is working extra hard to render for 2 different cards, right?

No, when you put the new card in, the motherboard noticed that, and shut down integrated graphics rendering.

You're cool.

Thanks Kallian for the response. I appreciate it.
