Planatoid Posted December 3, 2005 CID Share Posted December 3, 2005 oh you know what i didnt ask for your input n00b lol i already looked No need to be rude. The only way to do it is in the bios. Just simply disable integrated video, that's the most you can do. You don't even need to do it, though, to use another video card. The mobo should select the add-on card as default.

junkieXL Posted December 7, 2005 CID Share Posted December 7, 2005 Sorry, man.... I had the same problem with my Diamond Viper V770 card & a horrible 2400 dimension.. Gold tech support at dell said there is nothing to change on the board & there are no supported video upgrades for the dimension 2400. Dell has been boxing up more and more non-upgradeable designs...the 4600c is another pile of Dell rubbish... Soon after, the 2400 became a nice ashtray...... -JxL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiztiddragon Posted December 7, 2005 Author CID Share Posted December 7, 2005 lol i know the feeling thats why im in the process of upgrading my own stuff i got a new motherboard and a new processor on its way and then my trusty ole dell will soon be a target on the other end of a shotgun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
