onboard graphics not showing up under display adapters

Then all your monitors should be hooked up to the videocard, not the motherboard video output. I think you need to disable the integrated graphics(Intel(R) HD Graphics 530) in the motherboard bios and verify that the pci-ex graphics is the selected graphics option. Please if anyone can shed some light on my problem it would be greatly appreciated. Tried to provide as much info as I could. I have no other computer to test it on as well to see if it is truly a faulty card. I'm positive it is installed correctly so I don't believe that's the issue. Geforce Experience also doesn't detect it at all. Idk what exactly any of that means but it seems that the 8+6 route is telling me that the card isn't completely dead but I could be wrong there.īefore when I tried to download drivers it would say that there is no compatible device detected. Although, the HDMI screen didn't pick up any signal my other screen did, which is connected to my MoBo via VGA. Also, I tried seeing how it would run with 8+6 PCI-e power cables vs 6+6. The fans on the card are spinning, idk if that means anything. It displays everything, even when I browse the internet I can watch streams/videos however, when I start up a game it won't fully start because it says something along the lines of that there is no graphics cards so it can't run. I have a screen connected to the card via HDMI and the screen is working fine. The only things that show in device manager are 'Standard VGA Graphics Adapter' and 'Intel(R) HD Graphics 530' In the device manager, with hidden files showing, is doesn't appear under the display adapter. When I run a dxdiag it isn't in the display tab. I've been hunting the forum for a solution and have tried many things already.

So the gist is that I'm planning on buying a new graphics card this Black Friday/Cyber Monday and until then my friend let me borrow his old graphics card, which is the 970.
