JustinOhioRR Posted December 6, 2004 CID Share Posted December 6, 2004 I currently have a PCI Voodoo3 that i have installed for when i play quake... Now, i really dotn wanna use that Integrated anymore becuase it steals ram and lags the shit out of good games.... If i disable it in bios, how in the hell will the comptuer know where to send the information? Thanks Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/1023-i-want-to-disable-my-integrated-video/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

junkieXL Posted December 7, 2004 CID Share Posted December 7, 2004 You will most likely have an option to disable the Onboard video in the BIOS, or possibly a jumper on the board to disable it. There should also be the option to initialize Onboard, PCI, or AGP port for video output. Most, if not all, motherboards with onboard video will automatically disable the onboard once booted up with a video card inserted into the AGP or PCI port. If it does not (which is rare) then you go into your BIOS and disable the video there, if available. -JxL Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/1023-i-want-to-disable-my-integrated-video/#findComment-11583 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA3LE Posted December 7, 2004 CID Share Posted December 7, 2004 You will most likely have an option to disable the Onboard video in the BIOS..... You are correct SIR --- Hold DEL on boot, go into your bios (if you have award bios) -- you most likely will find the setting in 'Integrated Peripherals' and it will most likely say 'On Board Video' change from enabled to disabled (hit the + key) and [esc] from that screen exit with save and reboot. Screenshot below is of the award bios screen... the correct stuff isn't highlighted, but you get the idea ~~ you may want to edit the bios with the new video card OUT of the computer, after you edit, turn off the PC and pop in your new card... TA-DA it should work.... let us know Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/1023-i-want-to-disable-my-integrated-video/#findComment-11594 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Hahn Posted December 8, 2004 CID Share Posted December 8, 2004 You said it booted at 640x480. That usually means no drivers are installed. Are there any installed? If not, tell me your card and I can get you a link to the correct set.

JustinOhioRR Posted December 8, 2004 Author CID Share Posted December 8, 2004 well i found the drivers, but they dont have verified drivers to make the card a single supported card, or the main card....so with these drivers i cannot make it the main card, oh well...i guess ill turn the RAM used with the Integrated Thanks for the help Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/1023-i-want-to-disable-my-integrated-video/#findComment-11770 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Hahn Posted December 9, 2004 CID Share Posted December 9, 2004 Are you saying when you tried to install the drivers, Windows said they weren't verified, so you didn't install them? If you don't have any drivers, you need some. Tell me the exact card you have. I bet that's it. As for the main topic, how do you know it's using up RAM?

junkieXL Posted December 9, 2004 CID Share Posted December 9, 2004 Go ahead & install those Video drivers, they will work...."Verified" indicates that your card manufacturer has not slept with ol Billy Gates yet. cheers~!

JustinOhioRR Posted December 9, 2004 Author CID Share Posted December 9, 2004 i already installed the drivers, they work, what im saying is, is that i wanted to just disable the whole integrated card, and have the V2 do all the work......but the dirvers that they have for the device, arent supposed to be the only card in the PC taht actually does ALL of the computing graphically wise.... so basically, this card will not be standalone... oh well thanks Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/1023-i-want-to-disable-my-integrated-video/#findComment-11918 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Hahn Posted December 9, 2004 CID Share Posted December 9, 2004 Well, nothing more can be said about it. Go into the BIOS, disable the integrated video, and install drivers for the card. That's how it's done. Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/1023-i-want-to-disable-my-integrated-video/#findComment-11923 Share on other sites More sharing options...
