326 views Asked by At

I am trying to disable one my graphics cards, but I am have some issues trying to only disable one. When I type.

devcon find PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_05E3&SUBSYS_0F3919F1&REV_A1\4&FA060A&0&0009

I get PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0FBC&SUBSYS_31021462&REV_A1\4&B7B0A11&0&0108: High Definition Audio Controller PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_05E3&SUBSYS_0F3919F1&REV_A1\4&FA060A&0&0009: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1380&SUBSYS_31021462&REV_A2\4&B7B0A11&0&0008: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti 3 matching device(s) found. 'DEV_05E3' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. 'SUBSYS_0F3919F1' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. The system cannot find the path specified. 'FA060A' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. '0' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. '0009' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I am afraid if I enter in devcon disable PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_05E3&SUBSYS_0F3919F1&REV_A1\4&FA060A&0&0009

it will turn off both my graphics cards at once.

Use double quote:

devcon disable "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_05E3&SUBSYS_0F3919F1&REV_A1\4&FA060A&0&0009"

or

Escape all the & with ^ :

 devcon disable PCI\VEN_10DE^&DEV_05E3^&SUBSYS_0F3919F1^&REV_A1\4^&FA060A^&0^&0009
