I just got a new rig and am currently running my video off of a card (see specs) from my old system. I thought I would try the onboard video and see if I could tell any difference. I went in the bios and could not find an option for it. Do I need to take my video card out before the option shows up? Does the onboard just automatically work when there is not a card? Thanks,

Love computers but wanting to learn more about troubleshooting and wanting to contribute to this community!
There's a BIOS setting, on page 2-19 of the English manual E6771, "Advanced" menu, "System Agent Configuration".

For internal graphics, boot from iGPU.
