    I Have switchable videocard on my laptop.
    The ATI card only works when i have an external monitor hooked up to my laptop. If i turn the card on without it. The laptop screen goes black, the backlight is still on tho. Once i add an external screen i can see everything and play games as usual.

    How can i get it to work without the need of an external monitor?
    Everything works fine with the intel videocard tho.

    If you need any specification feel free to ask.
