Hi, I want to reinstall my drivers for my 560 ti because i see weird polygons while playing games.
I wanted to know if i can still be pluged into the 560 while uninstalling the drivers and will still be able to see my screen? And another question is that before i installed those drivers my pc was able to detect my other screen, with a blue plug, i think its vga? but that one was pluged into the mobo, not my other gpu. how come my pc dosent detect it now when pluged?

You should be fine with upgrading the drivers. You also have to be plugged into the GPU instead of the motherboard if your onboard graphics are disabled. If you do not have dedicated graphics but instead have onboard graphics only, then plug directly into the motherboard. I think you should be fine. In case anything happens, be prepared to enable onboard graphics and use those to install the drivers again. I would also maybe install a remote control application, like if you have an iPhone, JumiMouse Free is good. That will ensure ability to use and install graphics if anything fails. I am 99% sure that nothing will fail, but it is not bad to take precautions. Good luck

Okay, but what happened is that after I installed my 560 ti drivers I could not anymore be pluged into the mobo, with the blue wire for my tv) ... So I tried re-installing those drivers but it wont work, i go on intel.com download them and it says i don't meet the minimum specs... maybe it isint intel i dunno. i went onto ma-config.com also, they sugest drivers, I try, doesn't work, and also when I go into device manager there are no yellow arrows saying that there's a problem...

Maybe i should check the mobo, go on the site manufacturers site and download from there, try to find onboard drivers right? has nothing to do with chipsets or something like that right?

Ok so to be clear, I can still be pluged into 560ti while uninstalling those drivers to re-install them? the resolution will be crappy but then I just put the560 CD for the drivers.. And to be sure nothing fails and I cant see anything I should try getting the on-board graphics to work in case and/or iphone app... i don't have a intelligent phone lol anyways..
