I currently own a Toshiba T5200/100 with an Ahead VGA card in the 16 bit expansion slot (connected to a 16" monitor) This leaves the internal VGA plasma display unusable. I can live with that because I get 1024x768 from the AVGA card which I what I need. However, when I want to (at times) use the laptop with it's plasma display instead of the AVGA card (due to not wanting to lug a 16" monitor around with me - it just doesn't fit in the carry case :-) I have to physically open the back up and remove the card and then plug the plasma display back in, go into the setup and fix any problems there (Then of course, open the back up and replace the AVGA card once I've finished with the plasma display.) Is there any EASY way to disable the AVGA card ? A switch that could be made that could disable the AVGA's BIOS ? Possibly, is there a way I could use the plasma display with the AVGA card ? Thanks, Mike. -- -------------------------+----------------------------------------------------- | Michael portmann | You can't hide, what is right, face the truth, LIAR | You can't feel, you just steal, face the truth, LIAR ma892240@lux.sait.edu.au | - Yngwie J Malmsteen (Trilogy album) | -------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
