on board grahic disabling

[zigwyth]

I asked for help earlier on how to disable the on board graphics. In BIOS, I can only see 2 options which defaults to PCI. Do I have to remove the drivers for the on board? Can I simply disable it in device mgr? What about IRQ's. Windows XP

You probably have a agp onboard video display. There is a listing in the
bios for the purpose to enable or disable. Scroll each page of the bios.
Find it. Jym

For disableing in BIOS,you'll find that in advanced chip-set configuration.
You should find and select primary video adapter,dont forget for the main-
menu pressing enter gets you a sub-menu for detailed configuration.Also,
if youre attempting to install a video card leave the BIOS alone except for card
type,then save and exit.Uninstall in device mgr.,shut-off,install,select in BIOS,
on desktop,install card software/drivers.

If you plug in a AGP video card the onboard video will be disabled.
