Activate iGPU support when the dedicated GPU is present on the HP Hamar motherboard
I have an HP Hamar motherboard with a G4400T CPU and 8GB DDR4 RAM, and I'm running a GTX 750 2GB GDDR5. I want to check if I can turn on the integrated GPU (Intel HD Graphics 510) when the discrete card is already installed. HP mentioned that integrated graphics will be turned off if you install a dedicated GPU. Does this setup need BIOS modifications? Thank you for your help!
In my bios, when a GPU is installed in a slot, I can turn on the onboard feature using "MultiView." This lets me use the dedicated GPU while keeping the onboard system active. You should check your motherboard manual—it usually explains this setting. Different boards might call it various names like BIOS option, PCIe Boot, GFX, Graphics, or Multi-Monitor. Be careful with the labels!
HP mentioned that the iGPU doesn't function properly with a discrete GPU installed, and there was no way to enable it when the graphics card is set up in the BIOS.
Attempted a rigorous check by connecting an additional display cable to the onboard HDMI/VGA port and observing the results.
