I haven't gone home to do this yet, but I just realized something- does it change anything that I don't have a separate video card? I use onboard graphics from my motherboard.

It doesn't really.

So I made the change, and everything seems to be normal. Do I just wait for another BSOD? Do I just generate another report even without BSOD?

Just wait for a BSoD to come and look in your C:/Windows/Minidump and zip them. Then upload it.
