How do I disable the PCI Express video card on my Dell Dimension?

I%26#039;ve seen several similar questions and I understand why the consensus says that using my dedicated video card would be better. HOWEVER, I%26#039;m waiting for a new cooling fan %26amp; I would like to switch back to the integrated video card without having to physically take out the card.





There are only two BIOS options: Auto and PCI. Both options are defaulting to the dedicated video card. I have an e-GeForce 7600GS.... any ideas before the video card burns itself out?

your cheap dell motherboard (and any motherboard in a pre built computer from a company as far as i know) has a ridiculously small amount of options and features, unfortunately, pulling out the dedicated card is most likely the only option
