GPU + Onboard?

[Bezzaboy1234]

Hi guys,

So I have been trying to find a solution for getting all three of my monitors enabled on my Graphics card, But have found that the ATI 6850 only supports two monitors between the Two DVI + 1 HDMI due to the fact that they use the same bandwidth, and I have no desire to spend stupid amounts of money to get an active display port adapter to work, So I looked on the back of my motherboard and can see I have Display-port and HDMI out, I have plugged a HDMI cable in from my third monitor to the board (32inch TV) but cannot get a signal on it and it does not display in windows.

Is it possible to have another monitor/TV connected via the motherboard or not?if it is how do I go about doing it? is there something in the bios I need to select?

Thanks!

rob

Have you installed the onboard graphics drivers and also the lucid virtu drivers on you motherboard, in that order?

go onto your bios, and you have to enable the igpu

Advanced Mode --> Advanced tab page--> System Agent Configuration sub-page --> Initiate iGPU setting

Not sure how I go about doing that? can you download them direct from the Intel website?

EDIT: Don't worry, Popped up in windows update when I enabled it, Downloaded the lucid drivers and bam, awesome stuff.

thanks people!
