    I have a question I am trying to disable the onboard graphics card on this laptop
    I do not have the advanced options in the bios it is up to date. It has switchable graphics dynamic from what i can tell from my research the cards it has are onboard ati radeon hd 4200 series i think its the 4240 but device manager just says 4200 series the standalone cards is ati radeon hd 5400 series think its the 5450 both ati cards my trouble is i dont want to use the onboard at all want to just use the standalone card and update the drivers for it i am trying to be as detailed as i can if i missed anything let me know
