I have a dekstop pc with intigrated radeon 4250HD graphics with one hdmi out and one vga
i wanted better quality for the second monitor so i installed a old Quadro 1500 for the dvi
when booting up the computer will only reconize the quadro and only display displays connected to the quadro how do i fix?

The quadro is the graphics card, and if you plug something into that, it is not going to run the integrated graphics.
There is a workaround to use what is called "dual graphics" with amd cards, and I believe there is a similar workaround for intel/nvidia stuff. If your motherboard supports it, it will be in the BIOS, something like "use integrated graphics and discrete graphics", probably in fancier terms though haha

EDIT: Basically, any displays you want need to both plug in to your Quadro or both plug into the motherboard and you can remove the Quadro.
