Hi guys, i have a HP CQ41 with Insyde Bios (F.44) the bios rom you can find in my attachment or in this link ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp51501-52000/sp51636.exe
I know that my system have 2 graphic cards, one is ATI Radeon 4350 and an other is Integrated Intel Graphics. by default the system using ATI card. Recently, Im trying to install Mac OS into my system for studying, but unfotunatelly my ATI doesn't support for this system. Im searching the internet and found that the insyde bios has an advanced hidden menu in which the iGPU can be turned on, and someone did done this, you can see in this picture
Unfortunately, my knowledge is so poor to do this. Hoping someone can help me mod my bios, please . and I'll extremely appreciate for good news. Thanks in advance!

Ok, i have made a bios mod for you, i changed a few things, tried to activate VT, tried to activate iGPU as default and unhide the option to select it under "System Configuration".
So download it from my second folder, and test it

Hmmm not really, maybe there's another option to disable ati card. As you can see the option to select iGPU or dGPU is already unhidden. Will look further into this.
