elRey Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 i think you will be out of luck for your pci graphics or is this a pci express card? to disable your onboard graphics go to bios you have to disable it there Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/25881-one-last-questionpci-graphic-card/#findComment-175505 Share on other sites More sharing options...
