Hi all, first post =)
I am losing my mind over this!
I have GeForce GTX 970 which has 2 monitors hooked to it (HDMI and DVI).
I also have 10 meters long HDMI cable going to my TV and whenever I decide to watch a movie I unplug the HDMI to the monitor and plug the TV's one.
Then I realized I have a built in graphics on the Z87-A with a HDMI output. I was like "O nice I can have family guy on the TV for background while I work on my 2 monitors".
Right?
No!
Googling around I need to enable onboard graphics on my BIOS, but there is NO System Agent Configuration section in there.
Before I take my PC apart what would be my options? Could taking out the 970, booting to bios, enabling onboard, attaching my 970 back again work?
Thank you so much good people of Tom's, saved my behind multiple times over =)
