Hi! I have an Acer m4640g computer. How can I set the BIOS settings to turn on the computer and display the image through the motherboard of the i7-6700 processor? I insert a video card that does not have video outputs into the pcie connector, and when turned on, priority goes to it. But there is no image, since the display port is plugged into the motherboard itself. As soon as I pull out the video card and turn it on again, the image goes through the processor. The video card itself is p106-100, on which you can install a modified driver and then use it as a discrete one for games. There is no primary display or primary graphics option in the bios settings to set the value to “auto". Where can I set this up?

    The bios of your Veriton M4640G should have a section in the Advanced > Integrated Peripherals > Onboard Graphics Controller > which enables or disables the onboard graphics controller and this has to be set at Enable if you want the cpu graphics and Disabled if you want the NVIDIA P106-100 dedicated gpu card, you can't have both if a the NVIDIA P106-100 is plugged into the mboards X16 PCIe port.

    The mainboard listed for the Veriton M4640G in its service guide is the "MB VM4640G/HULK 14065-1 B150 WST(D) - Acer part #: DB.VMT11.001" is that the board that you have in your desktop, as that should have the bios section below.

    The below gpu's are the oem gpu's listed in the M4640G service guide that Acer fitted to the Veriton M4640G desktop for your information.

    It is not possible. The BIOS detects a GPU during the first part of POST and disables the onboard video. There is no manual option available…

    Nothing to do with it at all? Why are the bios settings so bad…
