I am using dual OS (Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS) in my laptop Dell inspiron14. It has two VGA (Intel Graphics and nVIDIA)

When I work in Windows 7, it using Intel Graphics and When I work in Ubuntu, it using nVIDIA because of this when I use Ubuntu battary goes down quickly.

How to disable nVIDIA and make it to use Intel Graphics?

Please help me in this case.
I couldn't not find best way by search over the internet.

  • I don't have a Dell: I have another brand of laptop, so if you cannot find this option in your BIOS, I cannot help you and you should ask a new question. I'm running with my Intel Graphics enabled, which disables my NVidia...
