Clear the CMOS.  That will restore the BIOS settings to their defaults.  The default is to look first for a PCI video card and if it is not there then use the onboard video.

 

There's a little jumper (probably blue) next to the lithium coin-cell battery on the motherboard.  To clear the CMOS, first disconnect power from the computer, then move the jumper to the other position, wait a minute, and move the jumper back.

 

You can then reconnect power and start the computer.
