    If there is no option for Optimus in BIOS, then you cannot disable it (to my knowledge, only Alienware machines offer this feature). If your 325M is bad, it may be possible to repair it, but if not, it will need replaced.

    Optimus will be hard wired in to the CPU graphics so there is no way to get around that.
