Hi everyone. I have a DQ57TM motherboard with i3 530 processor. and 9500 gt GPU. I've tried to set-up hybrid multi-monitor using Intel's instructions found here: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/embedded/software/emgd/hybrid-multi-monitor-support-paper.html

However, when I reach step #7, I cannot install drivers for 9500 gt because it says that no Nvidia product is detected. This is because the instructions say that "IGD" should be selected in BIOS. Does this mean my board doesn't support simultaneous integrated and discrete GPU?
 
Solution
After you installed the intel iGPU driver, shut download the PC, plug in the 9500gt, boot into the BIOS, you need change the setting to PCI, because the discrete GPU, 9500gt, is in the pcie slot now if you don't enable it, you can't install the nvidia driver. Or even like they said boot into the safe mode to do it.
After that you should be able to use that feature.
