Arcadevga on intergrated mobo?

Pages: (1/2) > >>

Jox43w:

Is anybody running a arcadevga pci card on a motherboard with intergrated graphics? I need to know weather it will conflict with intergrated graphics.

ahofle:

Can't you just disable the onboard graphics?  I used it on a mobo with onboard with no problems (but I had it disabled).

Fozzy The Bear:

Like ahofle said..... You disable the onboard card either in the bios for the mobo or with a jumper on the mobo. The AVGA is just a normal graphics card with extra resolutions programmed into it.

Im just being paranoid i thought i read some where a guy having trouble with his arcade vga due too intergrated graphics its a newish mobo gigabyte ga-g31m so i gues it will have the option to disable it in the bios.just out of intrest do you know the highest resolution the card gose up to id like to be able to use it on my pc monitor when its not in my cab.

Yes you can do that with it as well. It does all the normal PC resolutions. At the end of the day it's just a normal ATI graphics card with some extra stuff thrown into the bios..... But you'll have to set the frequencies correctly or you'll fry your monitor or your arcade monitor. Not sure how you switch between the two, to be honest. You might have to boot into safe mode to switch between them.
