Disable onboard mobo graphics

[golfjohnson80]

I can not see anything on my monitor when I plug in the hdmi into my GPU. It works when I use the same hdmi in the motherboard. How do I get my GPU to work.

What Mobo do you have? Without knowing this info, Nor I or anyone else can really tell you how to disable onboard features since every BIOS is different.

It's a gigabyte GA-78LMT usb3

As astro_80 said, it will vary with your MOBO. I have no experiance with your model, but you probably want to get to the BIOS. Plug the HDMI into your MOBO, then press DEL, F2, and F12 as much and as quickly as you can after hitting your power button to turn on. This will most likely take you to your BIOS. What to do next varies GREATLY between MOBO's, but try to look for something similar to "primary graphics adapter settings". After finding this, click on it and select the one that isn't already selected. After that, exit the BIOS and it should ask if you want to save your settings. Select yes, and you should be good to go.

I found how to turn off the on board graphics. So the graphics should come from my GPU when I plug my hdmi to it and I get nothing. Is it something to do with like a bad card or my pci slot in the motherboard. I can't get a display to come one no matter where I put my hdmi. So idk what to do now.

Try taking out your card before turning your computer on, hopefully that will get it to the way it was before (you may need to turn it off/on a few times for it to work). If that doesn't get you back to using your onboard graphics, you may want to reset your MOBO (there should be a button on your board that will reset your BIOS to factory settings, press that for a few seconds.

Sorry that I couldn't get your card to work. I'm certain there is a way to do it, but I just don't have enough experiance with your board to help you.

Oh, and tell me if what I told you worked at getting your computer the way it was. I'd hate to see my advice brick someone's machine.

I unplugged the gpu and put it back in. The fans come on and when it's plugged up to the monitor the screen goes black so it is working because the monitor changes from the no source found screen to a black screen. Still not sure what to do though.

You may need an update to your bios so it supports your gfx card. I've had the same issue in the past.

Can you put that 270x into another PC and see if it works?

That's weird. Are there any logos or anything, or is it just black?

Also, did you try resetting it? I found pictures of your MOBO online and while they don't look detailed enough for me to see if there's a switch to reset the BIOS, but there seems to be a CR2032 battery next to one of your expantion slots. Try removing that for a few minutes and then put it back and turn on your machine. If I'm right, it should erase all data from your board (but not your SSD'd/HDD's, so your data should be fine). Your motherboard will go back to the way it was when you bought it, and should change the settings to what they were before they were changed.

And unplug your computer too when the battery is removed.

The screen is just black no logos. I also found how to reset it. I am going to try that later to hopefully get it to at least run of the. Motherboard agian.

I hope it works. Please let me know the results.

Run off the Onboard GPU > Update the Motherboard to latest BIOS from the maker's support site > Once the BIOS is updated and reboot occurs, power down and reset CMOS w/ jumper. Then power up and into the BIOS once again, change the GPU priority to: PCIE, PCI, iGP; save and exit. Once you get past the BIOS screen, power down. Then install your GPU card and connect Display to your new Card.

^ Please notice the revision # and that u click the correct page that is correct for your exact Motherboard; the revision is printed on your board; as you can see that shown in reference, here: http://www.gigabyte.com/fileupload/product/2/4305/6448_big.jpg (in the upper-left corner). Looking at a motherboard standing up-right in a case, look in the lower-left corner for the board revision; this info should also be listed within your BIOS as well.
