You can't disable it. In SETUP, go to Integrated Peripherals and set Init Display First to PCI. You will be able to use the onboard card as secondary adapter for dual-monitor configuration (Windows 98 and up).

If you go to System on the Control Panel, you can uncheck the option that says "Exists in all Hardware Profiles" (or something like that because I got the spanish version of Windows) that should make windows stop asking you for the drivers and mark the onboard vga adapter with a X.
Well, hope it helps you :wink:
