Windows 10: The monitor is connected to a separate graphics card, but I want to use the integrated...

Hello I use an old monitor and an old discrete graphics card. My graphics card is Geforce 210 I didn't buy a better graphics card because I wanted to use the integrated graphics of my processor. Meanwhile, my processor is Intel Core i5-12400. Since it didn't recognize the monitor when I plugged it into the CPU socket, I had to use my old graphics card. When I connected the monitor to my old graphics card it was able to detect my monitor. But since the graphics card is very old, it is much weaker than the integrated graphics of my processor. I need your help, is there a way for me to use the i

usb monitors using graphics card

Hi isaac177,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

1. May I know the model number of AOC display monitor?
2. Is this the first time that you are trying to setup the display using HDMI?

You can try to use an adaptor (USB/HDMI or VGA as the card has 3 slots) to connect to monitor. I would also suggest you to get in touch with Nvidia to know more about this as there can be output issues while using adaptors and your Graphic card (GTX
1660 Ti) might not work as expected.

I suggest you to refer this
NVidia support link, and check if that helps.


Regards,

 

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
   

 

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.
