I have a Intel i5 CPU with Intel HD graphic(GPU and CPU on the same chip) and a AMD graphic card.

And I use the Intel CPU and AMD GPU to mine Bitcoin. 

I try to maximize the hash per second and the computer becomes unresponsive.  Is it possible to have the AMD GPU do the mining work while the Intel GPU do everything else?  So that my display won't lag and I can use GPU to watch video etc.

Yep, most of the time the predominant GPU is device 0, so depending on what mine your using, you should add either -d0 or --device 0 Smiley

anyone?
Run poclbm in your CMD window, and if your CPU shows up as an OpenCL device, just use the device number of it.

If I helped you in some way, and you feel obligated to do so, you can tip me some coin!

im not sure you can use the intel display output because i believe that when a  graphics card is put into a computer with a sandy bridge cpu it disables the gpu part of the chip.
