    Can someone post up screen shots of their BIOS settings? My discrete graphics card isn't working and I changed the settings to see if it would load but now I can't see anything even the boot screen. Thanks

    What laptop are you talking about? The BIOS screens will be different for different models/generations.

    the BIOS simulator index is no longer kept current.   unless someone goes to the effort of taking a screenshot of the relevant pages, you're best searching through the BIOS on your own so you can remember where things are located.   on all new systems, device settings are found under the 'config' menu.

    here's the old BIOS sim index:

    Most people will be using the default settings. Go to the last page of the bios and there is an option to load them.
