Re: Onboard Vga Adapter

06-21-2003

The BIOS has switches to disable all onboard  components except VGA .
If I try to install a new video card  (gforce MX 440 SE)  XP will not find the hardware (maybe conflict with onboard VGA).
If I install the driver  (from the CD) it tells me that the driver is already installed (device manager still only shows the S3 graphics card)

the manual is silent about VGA
