Integrated Graphics not working while using a GPU

I have an AMD A10 5800k APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics 3.80GHz...

 

I recently attached a GPU ( NVIDIA Geforce GTS 450). Unfortunately, my PC only detects the GPU, and my integrated graphics is not working and not showing in the device manager.

Will I be able to use both my Integrated Graphics and GPU? If yes can someone help how to enable my Integrated Graphics while using a GPU. Thanks!

That is normal if in BIOS you have the GPU on "AUTO".

Generally, in BIOS,  you can enable for the Integrated Graphics to be the Main Display Device but this will then disable the GPU Card.

When you have an APU processor's Integrated Graphics enabled and you install a GPU Card, BIOS will automatically disable the Integrated Graphics and make the GPU card the Main Display Device for your PC.

Go to Device Manager and see if you can enable the Integrated Graphics with the GPU card installed. But the GPU card will still be used as the Main Display Device.
