Yes, as whs says look in the bios.
Have a look online to find out what button you need to press (for your particular laptop) while booting to enter it and then look for something like "use onboard graphics" | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Paulpicks Special Edition OS windows 7 64 bit CPU i7 2600k @4.6ghz Motherboard Asus P8P67 EVO Memory 8gb G.skill Ripjaws X DDR3 2133Mhz 10-11-10-28 Graphics Card 2x KFA2 GTX 560ti Anarchy Edition in Sli Sound Card Xear 3d C Media PCI Monitor(s) Displays 27" Hanns-G HL272 Screen Resolution 1920x1080 Keyboard Logitech Mouse Coolermaster Storm Inferno PSU Antec Truepower New 750 Case Antec 1100 Cooling Thermaltake Frio.

THNX for the help but i cant enter the bios . I remember what keys shows the bios menu (in my case it was F10) but nothing happened when i do that. Just to be sure I tried all the F keys (F1-F12) but still no luck. After so many tries , the screen is still black.
Any other ideas guys ? | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit |

Just going back to your original post.. Did you disable the Intel graphics in the bios?
If so then it sounds like you need to find some way to reset the bios, obviously with pc's it's pretty straight forward but I don't really have any knowledge of how to do this on laptops.

You could try an external monitor to see if that works. Then you may go back to device manager and re enable the Intel graphics. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Brittechnologies II OS Windows 7 Ultimate X86 SP1 CPU i5-2550K differing speeds depending on the day Motherboard ASUS P8X68-V PRO/GEN3 Memory 16GB G.Skill Sniper 2133MHz, 4X4GB Graphics Card ASUS ENGTX460 DirectCU/2DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 460 Sound Card Onboard Realtek 5-1 Monitor(s) Displays Samsung P2570HD Screen Resolution 1920x1080 Keyboard Old Dell USB From 10 yrs Ago Mouse Gigabyte m6900 wired PSU Corsair HX650W Case Inwin Dragon rider Cooling Hyper 212 EVO w/two Noctua fans @1300 RPM Hard Drives TBA Internet Speed 8-19 Mbs down, 3-4 Mbs up Comcast Cable Other Info 5 fans, LG Bluray/R/RE, ASUS DVD/R/RW |

I tried this too but nothing shows on the external monitor. Is there a battery inside to reset BIOS, just like in normal PC's or not ? | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit |

Glad you figured it out. Normally getting to a laptop CMOS battery is a real hassle. You may also power off, remove the laptop battery and hold your power button down for 30 seconds.
