Hi Omar,

as I know the server has to be automatically bypass onboard video if it detects an additional video card. Try the link bottom it maybe solve your problem:

You can try to disable
System Maintenance Switch - Position S1

Also check under PCI devices from F9
Otherwise there will be no more option to disable trough HW
