Hello
I installed physically an agp card in my computer which has a m.b Shuttle Motherboard Socket A MK35N ] I have no idea of how to disable the video chip on mother board only by choosing from bios an agp slote rather than pci slote I tried to look in the manual of my m.b but I didnt c much as far as I am cocern as long as there is a agp slote then it can be done can u pls help

Well, if you had a display card in a PCI slot before, just uninstall the drivers, and remove the card from your device manager. If it was an onboard video, check the manufacturer's website, there should be info there, if not call or contact their tech support.
You may also want to update you agp controller driver, or whatever it's called.
Good luck, Red.

Hi
plse I dont have a pci card all I have is a on board V.chip and I coldnt find any site which talks about how to install the agp card . as for the bios I couldnt c any thing other than pci slote thing so could I get more precise help plse
regards jamal

well to install an agp card just put it in the slot and boot(the slot for agp should be brown and above the pci), install driver and your done. to get rid of the onboard then just go into your system properties (though control panel) and get into your device manager, click on displays, right click on your onboard and do disable, it should ask to reboot, do it and you should be fine. be sure to install the new card before disabling the onboard, hope this helps, if u can disable in bios it is better but this will do it too

some boards with onboard vga won't need you do disable anything in the bios. sometimes you can simply install the agp card and having a card in the slot automatically disables the onboard vga, then you just install the drivers as normal

Though, from what it sounds like his doesn't. That was the case with my 900mhz compaq 4090..the geforce4 went in and was automatically designated as the main card.
