I've just finished building and setting up my new computer. My problem is that because my motherboard has onboard graphics I can't use my graphics card to display to a monitor. Is there any way to switch it to use my graphics card?

I got it!! It turns out I had to turn my onboard graphics on and then have my card plugged in. Then it changed. Thanks for responding and helping me!!!

Yes. Originally I connected the motherboard via vga to a monitor to set it up. Then I put the graphics card in and hooked it up via HDMI to a Visio TV. Although once I did I was unable to get a signal.

The monitor that I currently have set up is somewhat old. I can still use it since it does have a vga connection. Will the graphics card still work even if I plug the monitor into the motherboard. I'm new at this PC stuff so everything is new to me.
