Re: Onboard Vga Adapter
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 Ulrich ooyah wrote: "Ulrich Roedder" <> wrote in message news: .com.br... ooyah wrote: "Ulrich Roedder" <> wrote in message news:... Hi I try to upgrade to a gforce4 on a PCChips 925 computer and cant find a way to disable the onboard VGA adapter. Chip set is VIA VT8751 and VT8233 any help?? Ulrich hello this is usually an option in the bios whats a bios? hello again bios = B asic I nput O utput S ystem its the interface between your hardware and the operating system or software to view the bios, press F2 or DEL ( depends on which BIOS you have ) as your system boots the VGA options will be there somewhere have you the manual for your motherboard ( or search for it online ) - this will guide you through your particular BIOS regards Ulrich Roedder |
