Laptop BIOS looking...funny...

Honestly, I would just avoid that laptop unless it's your only option.

Hey guys,

So I'm looking to buy a laptop on craigslist and in the picture, the bios is not looking too good. It has a GTX 260m, and I was wondering: if I just unplug the GPU and run it on integrated graphics, do you think it might post normally? 

Thanks for the read.
