Multiple monitors: you install a video card in a Paviliion disable the onboard graphics

I have a p6250t paviliion running windows 7 (CPU intel quad-core, 4 GB ram, 600 GB HDD) with integrated graphics and want to run two monitors.  If I install an integrated graphics card video card is automatically disabled, or I can use two ports that I would use a dual head video card?

When you install the video card, the embedded video is disabled.  You can use one or the other.  However, if you buy a video card with two ports, you can use two monitors.  You must make sure that the video card will work correctly 300W of power.  A card that requires 350W should run OK, because manufacturers tend to overstate the power requirements of their cards.

    You go to control panel, system maintenance, and then Device Manager. Scroll down and look for graphics cards, click the plus tab, click on the model of integrated graphics card you have. Then right click and a menu appears, select turn off and that's all. Then follow the instructions on your new graphics card. Good luck...

    I want to join 6 screens with a single CPU.

    Hi DebBiswas,

    You can attach as much monitor you need, but it depends on the material if it supports or plug another video on the computer card.

    If you use SLI / Crossfire, the system must support more than 2 cards.

  • Disable the integrated graphics card?

    Hello

    I have a Dell XPS 15 L502X. So I recently installed a game called Wolfenstein: The New Order. And everytime I start the game I get an error known on the web as "wglCreateContextAttribsARB failed".

    I know that the cause of the error is that the game keeps identifying my integrated graphics (Intel HD 3000) as the main graphics card so that I have a dedicated onboard graphics (Nvidia GeForce GT 540 M, 2 GB dedicated memory).

    The problem is that my integrated card only supports OpenGL 3.1 and below, although my GPU supports up to OpenGL 4.0. I know for a fact that this GPU is able to run the game and YES I already chose my GPU as the primary graphics card under manage 3D, the global settings settings AND parameters of the program specific AND even tried setting the PhysX Configuration as the GPU itself at unsuccessfully.

    I also tried to disable my Intel HD 3000 by Device Manager (couldn't turn it off via bios), but whenever I do so that turns off the display of my laptop. However, I have a TV that my laptop is connected via HDMI. If my laptop screen is transferred to my TV and I can not change/turn my laptop displays ONE unless I had to re - activate the integrated graphics card. Strange in my opinion!

    On the other side, I ran the game without the integrated graphics card (when), and the game runs very well! CLEARLY the GPU (GT 540 M) is able to run this game, although the game is not identify him. Instead only identify the integrated Intel HD Graphics 3000 card or identifies the onboard graphics as the main reason any!

    Need help please, I want to play the game on my laptop screen not on my TV... Also on a side question, is it possible to completely disable my integrated graphics (Intlel HD 3000) without losing my screen? If so, how?

    Thank you for your time.

    EDIT: I discovered that a similar problem, I used to have with another game (watch dog) on the demanding game run my video card to support DirectX 11 for the game (so it never ran), now works correctly when I turn off my integrated graphics card and use my TV as my main screen! EVEN IF my GT 540 M is to satisfy the minimum requirements for the game!

    You can switch between graphics cards - Intel low performance for graphic intensive application of navigation/less graphically and using nVidia graphics high-performance hungry applications in graphics resources like games.

    You can take a look on the link shows to switch between the graphics card Intel and discrete graphics (nVidia, in your case):

  • Three monitors with a single video card?

    Hey guys,.

    I have a user with a T430 possessing a video card Intel HD connected to a Mini Series 3 with 2 DVI connectors.

    She claims that it connected to his laptop to another docking with the same configuretion and she was able to work with 2 monitors connected to the docking station and its display LCD on the laptop, I tried the same thing with its current docking station and it will not recognize 2, the LCD on the laptop and 1 on the monitor connected to the docking station.

    I've never seen this work with just a video card, I saw him when he has a second video card in there, but once again, she claims, he worked on an another docking station (exactly the same thing from a work colleague) it is plugged.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    The T430 is able to support three LCD, if you use the 3 series with more mini docking station with 2 monitors connected via DVI or Displayport. The third monitor can be internal or external connected via the mini laptop own DP.

  • Does not start after installing new video card

    Hello, I have a desktop H8-1284, and the video card went a few days ago. So I bought a video card Geforce GTX 650, and after installing the card and the computer starts, it hangs just at the start of the HP logo screen. So I put an old geforce 8800, and she starts without a problem. When I try the new card Geforce GTX 650, the same thing, just hangs at the splash screen.  I checked the bios and it doent seem to be something there that can help wouild. My diet is 460 w, and the new map needs of 400 w, any help will be greatly appreciated

    Hello

    Most of the cards PCI-E 3.0 are retro-compatible with the PCI-E 2.0 slots.  However, in order to get the PCI-E version 3, you must use a processor Ivy Bridge.  Look at these specificationsfor a typical NVIDIA GTX 650.

  • installing a video card in p7-1010

    Hi, I have a new HP Pavilion p7-1010.  I am wanting to install a new video in card and want to make sure that I can.

    The video card I'm interested is an AMD Radeon HD 6950.

    I realized I have to install a new power supply too, correct?

    Hello

    Radeon 6950 video cards connect 10.2 "11.4" length.  You must open the PC and the measure to make sure that you have enough room.

    Yes, you will need a new power supply.  The Corsair CX600 apppreciate be a good choice.

    You need to open your PC and measure the physical dimensions of your diet.  Here is a list of the things to consider:

    1. Specifications
    2. Total power - important
    3. amperage 12 + v - important
    4. Modular - is not required, but I like the flexibility
    5. Warranty
    6. I7 and SLI ready
    7. Efficiency rating
    8. Cost
    9. The physical size - standard ATX PSU is 5.5 "by 5.9" by 3.4 "give or take a few tenths
    10. Only one + 12 volt rail is a better choice.

    www.Newegg.com has many choices of power supplies.  Corsair, OCZ, Rosewill, Thermaltake...

  • Now 23-d044 - installed MXM video card - HP Envy screen flashes red green blue black

    Hello

    I'm a 23-d044 I wanted to do the update/install video card instead of using the integrated graphics card.  I tried two different cards, a nVidia GeForce GT 540 m 2 GB and a part of HP AMD card #707804-002.  In each case the applied heat sink was part HP #694456-001. In each case, whenever I go back to the PC and it works, the screen flashes red, green, blue, black, white to infinity. I have read these and other forums indicating that this is a fault with the GPU, but I find that is unlikely given that I tried two different cards. I thought that maybe the MXM connection on the motherboard, but on the original motherboard power connector was defective, I have since replaced the motherboard (about 2 weeks ago) with the same part number. I downloaded both the AMD and nVidia drivers the most recent for each card (while running the integrated graphics card), but not joy.  Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks in advance for the help!

    Sean

    Sean, I had the same problem too.  I finally thought to it.  Just above where the grafics card go is two connectors and one of them has a plug in there.  above the connectors, said uma_lvds, the other says MXM_LVDS.  Swap the power cord of the uma_lvds to the mxm_lvds.  This will fix the problem and you will be running.
