How to disable the GPU so that it defaults to the integrated graphics

gpuintegrated-graphics

I have an old computer that is experiencing graphical related corruption as well as randomly restarting.

In an attempt to isolate the problem I want to disable the GPU so it reverts to the chipset inbuilt into the motherboard.

I have tried disabling the GPU in the device manager, but it still requires that I plug my monitor into the GPUs monitor output port, which seems to indicate to me that it isn't truly disabled.

How would I go about disabling it?

You should be able to disable it in the BIOS. They vary between companies and models so I can't give you a definite location, but it will be in the section for video.
