How to Disable GPU on Dell LA-D801P

[mferna14]

Hi all, getting video graphics errors on this Dell BAL20 LA-D801P Rev: 1.0 motherboard . Confirmed it with external dsplay & result is the same. After a good re-flow of the chip, the lines disappeared & works for 45~90 min without errors & once it heats up the AMD 216-0889018 gives up & then lines appear again. New chip of this year version is available & if available it's reballed & then I do not trust these chips as I had a very bad experience purchasing one for another motherboard, tehy never work!! I was checking forums & YT videos & confirmed that there is a way out of this. Can i Disable the GPU all together & work on it's Intel Graphis chip SR2ZU. According to the SR2ZU spec, it has Intel® HD Graphics 620 built-in. How can I get this working as it's dedicated GPU rather than the defective AMD. Any help will be greatly appreciate. Thanks

Thanks "mcplslg123", I was busy 2 days with family. Now back again on track & back to work. I checked both pages 9 & 25. How will I find these resistors??? No Boardview available so it becomes very hard to find the required components. Do you have any idae where will these resistors be on the motherboard. Thanks
