Nakatomi2010 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Customer came complaining of an error (Bad hard drive) and then proceeded to explain to us how his monitor cable was stuck on his monitor port, so he ripped out the cable while it was screwed into the port...Needs a new video card, video card installed and to repair the damaged hard drive a repair install of Windows was required... So, now the repair install is complete and Windows wants to be activated, problem is that Windows wont start using the new video card until I boot in properly and Windows detects and installs drivers to it, so in the mean time Windows continues to use the onboard video, I cannot diable the onboard video in the bios (eMachines), and I can't disable it through safe mode (Windows needs to be activated)...How do I disable the onboard video in Windows without logging in?

Nakatomi2010 Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 Nevermind, I hit F8, and from the menu I chose "Enable VGA Mode" ad that did it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
