If I buy a new motherboard with a video card built in how
difficult would it be to de-activate that video card so I can
use another one or do I even need to de-activate it?

I have a ATI - TV tuner card to record video and I want to
build a better machine to use it in.

The BIOS will probably have an "auto" setting, and a setting to turn off the
onboard video. Best deal is to download the manual and see.

Deactivate the onboard video in the bios and install the new video card
(following the card maker's instructions). Or buy a motherboard with no
onboard video???

Yes, buy motherboard without video. It would be better...
