hi folks,

my computer blew up like last week tuesday so I went to the store to get a new one. course I need a nice pc so i want 2 graphic cards in it. since the onboard card is like sweet it would be nice to get that working at the same time as my new graphic card (Asus Geforce GTS450)

anyone knows ore the onboard (Asus Geforce ENGT220 1GB D2 LP) automatticely turns of if you put a new one in?

Thanks for updating your thread.
Sorry no one had an answer for you though.
I think we can leave the thread open for now.

Do you see a green button in the bottom right of your post labeled "Edit"?

If you do edit your post, if there have been replies, it is normally best to just correct spelling or the like because the site does not send out notices of edits. If changing context, in most cases, it is best to just post a reply with just a correction.

I note you said you want two graphics cards, but want to keep your on-board enabled too. You did not say what this computer is used for but normally when you see 2 graphics cards, it is for gaming using SLI or Crossfire, or to feed 3 or 4 monitors. Unless you plan on running 5 monitors, I would not enable the on-board graphics, even if nice. On-board graphics typically rob some (often large chunks) of system RAM for graphics processing. Keeping it disabled frees that up.
