Hello, I have an Aspire 5560G with parameters
AMD A8-3500M
8GB RAM
750GB
My colleague "computer scientist" switched my attention to the dedicated card which is damaged, everything is ok, how to change to integrated as there is no picture? The HDMI and VGA also have no image checked on Acer and BenQ monitors

    graphic cards, normally, are soldered on the motherboard, so you can't change it.

    I am talking about a hardware change of the graphics card in a bios to the integrated one

    Since the discrete card is damaged, your BIOS may already be defaulting to the integrated card. Have you tried to turn the TV or screen on with the Fn+F5 or Fn+F6 toggle key combinations? Jack E/NJ

    Unfortunately, it does not work, are there any other ways?

    how did your friend troubleshoot to an only "integrated card" failure?
    if you don't get any image from boot, can be also a corrupted BIOS.

    turned off the computer, went into bios f2 and from Graphic Mode with integrated switched to Switchable and f12 to save the changes the computer turned off and turned on the lack of image

    ok, so you can try a BIOS CMOS reset or load default, even without seeing the screen.

    maybe you have to try it a bunch of times but...
    power on and press F2 to enter BIOS, wait 20-30 seconds and then press F9, press enter, wait 10 seconds and then press F10 and press enter

    check if it's able to reboot and have a screen image.

    last try, CMOS reset, taking CMOS battery apart:

    you need to open the bottom cover of your laptop and pull out the CMOS battery and the main battery, let it there for 1hour and then put everything back and try to boot.
