I hope there are some /g/ fags here. I've disabled my intel graphic card and now the screen is black. I've taken out the BIOS battery and it didn't do the trick, I did it 3 times, once for 5 minutes and it didn't work, I don't think I've damaged my motherboard. I can't find the reset pin on my motherboard so that is out of the question. Any help?

Take out the CMOS battery and put it back in again.
Do you have an actual graphics card or just integrated?
post a pic of the inside of your case

That's exactly what I did, 3 times

Both, on that is used for light work, the one that I disabled, and a radeon one used for heavier stuff.

Here it is, if you need a close up image of a certain area let me know. The battery I took out is near the ram slots and the fan.

That's because BIOS settings have been held in flash for the past TWENTY YEARS.

You didn't know this; stop helping.

Look harder. The only way the CMOS is going to clear itself is if you don't boot the computer for forty years.

Boot with it removed, and it should reenable the onboard automatically.
Dumb question, but you've tried plugging the monitor into every socket, right? If one card's disabled, the other should be enabled.

My computer is like 2-4 years old.
>Look harder
By now I think that the pin is behind the Graphic card

I will try that, but first I will read tutorials because I am scared I will fuck shit up.

I am not, is the are you're showing the pin?

Yes.
Short it with a screwdriver or something.
It would have been a lot easier to find if you HADN'T OBSCURED HALF YOUR MODEL NUMBER WITH A WIRE.
