How do I disable the onboard graphics card on an ASUS Q550LF?

[JusMahBASSCannon]

Hi! On the ASUS Q550LF, it comes with both the Intel HD Graphics card and the NVIDIA GeForce GT 745M card. I need to disable Intel HD Graphics so the system is forced to use the NVIDIA graphics card, but the BIOS doesn't seem to have an option to force graphics chips. Is there a way to go about disabling the onboard graphics chip on an ASUS Q550LF? Thanks!

I believe there definitely should be an option to disable this, although i dont see why there would be a problem with using both. the system will take advantage of the discrete gpu if needed

I'm troubleshooting some problems with Adobe Premiere Pro, and I was told to force the system to use the NVIDIA card by disabling the onboard graphics card.

Okay, well in that case there definitely should be a way to disable it in the bios. You probably missed it but it should be there

I believe you can disable it under the display tab in device manager.

It's in the Driver's control panel that you will find the option to re-direct ADOBE PREMIERE to the second GPU.


Control Panel / NVIDIA Control Panel / Manage 3D Parameters

There is 2 TABs. You have to select the second one and this option there !!!


Good luck !
