How to disable discrete graphics card and use only integrated graphics MacBook Pro Early 2011? I have a MacBook Pro Early 2011 and the GPU has died. I want to switch to Integrated
Graphics only until I get my Logic Board replaced.

I've tried:


gfxcardstatus and I get this:


There is no External Display connected btw and I've never used one.
I moved /System/Library/Extensions/AMD* -> ~/DisabledExtensions/
I've tried Single User Mode and did the same thing as above.


I really don't know what else to do. I want to know if there is a way
to login to EFI/BIOS and disable it or anyway whatever it takes to just kill that
annoying AMD that is making my screen blue and twitchy.
