Under Initiate Graphics Adapter see if you can initiate the IGPU

Posted

I was told I could use my iGPU to run my TV. Im getting a second monitor, with one being plugged in to DVI and the other will be Plugged in to HDMI. So I was going to us one of my iGPU ports to power my TV. Just so I can throw Netflix and VLC on screen to watch movies and such. I tried it today but it didnt work. I have an i5 3570K on a MSI Z77A GD65 motherboard. Is there a setting im missing? Or is it just not possible. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.

The options I have:

Virtu Technology Disabled

Initiate Graphics Adapter PEG

Integrated Graphics Share Memory 64M

DVMT Memory 256MB

IGD Multi Monitor Enabled. 

 

Nothing says enable iGPU. Also when I tried to install my Intel Graphics drivers it told me that the machine didnt have the requirements. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.

Yeah IGD multimonitor should enable your iGPU and graphics card simultaneously.

Windows should install a driver automatically.

 Almost as cool as my temps

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

Are there any devices near the bottom of device manager with a yellow exclamation sign beside them? 

 

Nope. None. Like I said before, it stated that my system did not meet requirements when I tried to install the driver. Defective iGPU?

If there's no device in device manager showing the 'needs driver' warning despite not having a driver, then there is no device - it's not currently active.

 

Re-examine your relevant BIOS settings, enable anything that's left disabled.

I just found the setting. Now it works. Thanks for the help every one.
