Just to clarify that; it is before OS loading, and hence long before driver loading, that the problem arises - I cannot even see the BIOS splash screen.

Linux sees absolutely nothing - not even unrecognised hardware.

I know that the card is OK (works in another machine) and that the slot appears to work as I tried a sound card in it and that was detected.]]> Sat, 12 Oct 2019 03:55:55 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12558&PID=68872&title=enabling-external-graphics-card#68872 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12558&PID=68861&title=enabling-external-graphics-card#68861 Author: Paul Abraham

Well, I'm running Linux on this so its a little difficult to do that the way you say, though I have tried equivalent things such as blacklisting the driver. I might yet give it a go with a temp Windows installation just to see.

However, I'm pretty sure its not a driver problem as the card is not detected at all.]]> Fri, 11 Oct 2019 22:47:15 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12558&PID=68861&title=enabling-external-graphics-card#68861 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12558&PID=68478&title=enabling-external-graphics-card#68478 Author: Vulpie05

I think forces is fine. I just installed a 1660 Ti and that setting seemed to always stick no matter what I did.

I would suggest downloading DDU (display driver installer), reboot into safe mode, and run DDU to get rid of the Vega 3 drivers. Do this even if the discrete card is an AMD GPU. Then, install the drivers for the discrete GPU. Let us know what happens.]]> Tue, 01 Oct 2019 11:03:40 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12558&PID=68478&title=enabling-external-graphics-card#68478 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12558&PID=68461&title=enabling-external-graphics-card#68461 Author: Paul Abraham

I have an A320M-HD motherboard paired with an Athlon 240GE and I'm trying to add a separate graphics card but the card is not recognised. It does not even appear in the OS in the list of PCI devices.

Whatever I set the enable internal graphics to in BIOS it always sets it back to "Forces" and I guess this may be at the root of it. Any ideas about what is going on and what I should do?]]> Tue, 01 Oct 2019 02:35:59 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12558&PID=68461&title=enabling-external-graphics-card#68461
