My Nvidia card has completely broken, how do I use integrated graphics? (Intel HD Graphics 4600)

[samlu1999]

My CPU is the Intel i5-4460, and on Intel's website, it says that this processor supports integrated graphics (Intel HD Graphics 4600).

However, after my Nvidia card broke (likely hardware issue, massive display issues), it says that my display device is Microsoft Basic Display Driver after I uninstalled my Nvidia card in Device Manager. (I can't physically access the hardware in my PC due to it being an all-in-one and extremely hard to open up)

Brief research has shown that I likely need to toggle some settings in the BIOS, but I'm not sure how to do this.

I am running Win 10 64-bit

Would greatly appreciate any assistance.

remove the vid card from the slot [with the card still in the slot it maybe auto detecting it ] --then you hook the monitor to the boards display ports [vga? hdmi ? dvi? ] what ever you care to use

with that it should boot into bios screen by default


with out knowing your board as with mine its should be in your bios settings as like called '' Primary Graphics Adapter ''-- Select a primary VGA.

with that you should be able to select igpu or pci card what ever they have listed to be used --

if you still get the ''display device is Microsoft Basic Display '' you may need to look at your boards driver page an see if you need the intel driver for the graphics part of the chip..

after all that no telling what win-10 will want to do ??? cant help you there

Disable it from Device Manager and uninstall the drivers, enable the integrated graphics from there, restart and go into bios and do what junkey said. You might have to restart a few times for the intel HD graphics to be recognized.

most of the instructions I can find include removing cmos battery which may be difficult in this case (pun not intended).

i can guess you need these at some point but I can't actually find instructions on how to swap to them: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/intel-hd-graphics-4600-for-4th-generation-intel-core-processors.html

Curious how its done as google just returns results about how to swap from the Intel graphics, not too them.

like this msi board it under

''Integrated Graphics Configuration''
Initiate Graphic Adapter
Choose which adapter you wish to make the primary option
[PEG] PCI-Express Graphics Device
[IGD] Integrated Graphics Display


don't use device manager to uninstall the drivers or anything outside of just disabling the card [NVidia don't support or recommend device manager for its drivers]

thing is if the card is no good no point in it staying in the board ?? just remove it and get it out of the way

You can take it out of the PCI-E slot
Choose integrated in bios
Connect the VGA cable to the motherboard/integrated GPU
