On-board video card - how do I free up the memory?
So I don't really know what I am talking about here, but bear with me please. I got an AGP video card with a DVI output and a VGA output, and am now dual monitoring with a DVI monitor and my old VGA monitor. I read somewhere that I could now disable the built-in video card and free up some RAM - how do I do this?

Re: On-board video card - how do I free up the memory?
In Bios. When you start up your computer (right as it's starting up), mash the "F1" "delete" or "F2" key, one of them will (probably) bring you to a bios menu.
Meddle around in there looking for a way to disable it, it should be in there somewhere. Be careful not to screw with anything else besides that option. |

LOL, you may need to mash the DEL key on some PC's instead of F1/F2. You're going to look for an option like "Default Video Card" and you'll have options like "PCI / AGP / OnBoard". Just change it from OnBoard to whatever you have in there now.
