Onboard graphics for a display tablet

Anibar

My GPU has only 1 HDMI port that's being used for the monitor; recently I got myself a display drawing tablet and it requires an HDMI port. I've read that I can activate the integrated graphics in the BIOS and use the motherboard's HDMI port for the tablet, as if I was using a second monitor. I'm just a little concerned because I don't really know about technical stuff and I'm a bit worried if doing that would cause any problems with the GPU or the monitor, or is it completely safe. Is there some specific reason the option gets disabled on the BIOS when you install a GPU?

Welcome to the forums!

Sure, try turning it on. The good thing is, if it doesn't work, you can just go and turn it back off. Won't have to do any hardware tinkering and won't risk breaking anything. 

Ok I'll check, thank you!
