Tech question - would it be possible to run a second monitor via vga through onboard graphics while still running a monitor through PCI-E hdmi connection? Most solutions I have found involve activating onboard graphics in BIOS, but doing this I am still not picking up the second monitor. I figure its a vga driver issue but I am unable to install them while the drivers for the external graphics card are installed.

Should be possible. On-board should be active in the BIOS. Perhaps there is a second option which dictates the order. Set the PCI-E one as primary in that case. Install the driver for the on-board display first. Then you select the on-board card in your screen preferences menu.

it helps to know what windows version you have.

for windows 10, start key + P to choose if you want to extend the window to a secondary monitor

I am using an MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition, and have enabled the integrated multi-monitor setting. There is an option to select which display as primary boot display and I have tried both PCI-E and integrated to no avail, however there is no order option like there seems to be with other mobos. As I said, I am unable to install the drivers, and am getting a "this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software" error. How would I go about installing these drivers while still having GPU drivers installed?

Using windows 10, extending the window to another monitor doesn't help in recognising the second monitor.
>>
once you enable the BIOS to use the motherboard video, does it recognize both devices in the device manager?

In principle Z97 supports this. There's no hardware reason (like, for example, the IGP sharing the x16 lanes with the PCIe socket) this won't work, but you will need BIOS support.
