[SOLVED] Integrated card not appearing on display adapters?

[deathrl]

I recently plugged in a GTX 1060 into my computer and attempted to use two monitors, my main into my 1060 and my secondary into the other slot. The second display is not showing on the monitor and only my GTX is showing on the display adapter tab in devices. I have a suspicion that the bios is disabling it but I am unsure how to fix. My BIOS is Gigabyte.

Just plug them into the 1060. No point in using the 1030.

My 1060 only has 1 HDMI, of which my first monitor is plugged into. My issue is that my second monitor is not being picked up. I am attempting to plug my second monitor into the back of my pc, not the 1060.

Use a DVI to HDMI cable? Many boards disable the onboard video when a card is plugged in. You should be able to use the 1030, I'm not sure that doesn't work.

I very much so appreciate your time and answers, however, my question is how do I change the fact that my onboard gets disabled? Is it possible to enable it again? My previous computer allowed me to do so, hence my confusion.

No way that I know of. Either the board allows it or doesn't. I'm not even sure how to tell which board is which. I know every board I've ever owned turns off the ports when a card is put in. But I also know I've read on this forum people who are still able to use them. I've always assumed they aren't lying.

hmmm, ok. thank you.

if you go into bios it's probably under the chipset or i/o tab. option should read like igfx or onboard port - options usually enable, auto, disable, good luck.

hmmm, ok. thank you.
