question 12 of 99
you have just installed a video card in a pci - express slot in your windows workstation. you have made sure that the card is connected to the power supply using an 8 - pin connector. you also have your monitor connected to the video card. however, when you boot your workstation, it displays a black screen instead of the windows screen.
which of the following is the most likely cause of the problem?
you inserted the video card into the wrong pci - slot.
you forgot to link the bridge chip from the integrated video adapter to the video card.
you have not reconfigured the motherboard in bios/uefi to utilize the new video card.
you have disabled the integrated video adapter.

Explanation:

When a new video card is installed in a PC with integrated video, often the integrated video adapter needs to be disabled in the BIOS for the new card to work properly. Forgetting to do this can result in a black - screen issue as the system may still be trying to output video through the integrated adapter instead of the new card. Forgetting to connect the bridge chip (unrelated here), not connecting the monitor properly (not the most likely as it's connected), or not re - configuring the motherboard in BIOS for the new card are less likely compared to disabling the integrated adapter.

Answer:

You have not disabled the integrated video adapter.
