Does anyone know how to disable the integrated graphics on a A7N266 so that I can use another AGP card? I physically installed the new card, but the video still runs through the integrated port.

Does the mobo manual mention anything about disabling onboard video in the BIOS? Keep in mind the mobo may automatically disable onboard video if you put in an AGP video card.

The card is in the AGP slot, but the system is not detecting it. The fan on the videocard powers up. I can't find anything in the BIOS to disable it. This is a nforce 220d board, if that helps.

I checked the motherboard's manual on the Asus website. To disable the onboard video you need to go to Advanced -> PCI Configuration. Once there change Primary VGA BIOS from Onboard VGA to AGP VGA Card.

Sweet, thanks. I'll try that. I think the paper version of the manual is missing a bunch of pages.
