Graphics card question by user35870 on 04-16-2005 at 02:45 PM

Well I got a new graphics and its working all fine but is it safe to turn of the built in graphics card? Because it says in the device manger that it is unable to start could I just go ahead and disable it?

Any advice would be great :)
thanks

yes you can disable it, you only need one graphics device.

It's not just have, it's necessary: if you have a separate GFX card, the inbuilt one cannot operate anymore, so it should be disabled.
