Windows 10: Issue with integrated graphics card

I have an Ibuypower pre-built pc. I have an I7-11700 CPU. It has integrated graphics and I also have a dedicated Nvidia RTX 2080 GPU. I recently moved my computer within my home office. Prior to disconnecting everything, I powered down the pc, turned the power supply off and removed the power cable from the PSU. I am running 2 monitors, one is 165hz and one is 144hz. I was running both with the displayports - one on the GPU, and one on the integrated graphics card. I have finished putting everything back together, and now my integrated graphics card isn't showing up in device manager, o

graphics card problems

Hi,

Your computer makes a noise or beeps from your internal speaker because it failed to detect the graphics card. What we can suggest is for you to try cleaning your graphics card with a pencil eraser. Here are the steps below:

• Turn your computer off.
• Pull out your video/graphics card.
• Rubbed the cold contacts with soft pencil eraser.
• Connect your video/graphics card back to the computer.

Kindly note that this is just a temporary fix. If the case still continues, I suggest that you contact your graphics card's manufacturer.

Let us know how it goes.

 

MSI Laptop monitor uses integrated graphics vice NVIDIA card

I have an MSI laptop with a 120hz-capable monitor and a NVIDIA GTX 1060. Unfortunately, the monitor is using the integrated graphics card for the display instead of the NVIDIA card. How do I force it to use the NVIDIA card for the display instead of the integrated graphics card?

Issues I'm seeing: This force-limits my refresh rate to 60hz and causes noticeable visual performance issues in everyday applications on Windows (e.g., the screen lags when dragging an Excel 2016 window across the screen)

Observations: I dual-booted into Ubuntu and the screen refresh rate is now 120hz. So, since it works on Ubuntu but not on Windows (by default), I know this should be solvable at the O/S-level.

Similar questions that I've reviewed/attempted:

1. I have a NVIDIA GeForce graphics card as well as an integrated Intel HD graphics card
   
2. Integrated graphics card being used over NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M in Toshiba laptop?
   
3. Can I force Steam to use my Nvidia GPU instead of the integrated Intel card?
   
4. No way my laptop will use nVidia chip instead of integrated graphics

Uninstall and Reinstall the Graphics Card Drivers.

Step 1: Uninstall the Graphics Card

  Right click on the Start menu.

  Click on “Device Manager” from that list.

  Follow the on-screen instructions to complete it and then restart the computer if prompted.
  

After the restart, please go ahead with the next steps to install the latest drivers and check if that resolves the issue.
