Problem Not all graphics cards in the computer are fully supported
(Software doesn’t work with a certain graphics card, or another graphics card
doesn’t work at all)
1 Cause If you have different models of graphics cards in your computer, your Matrox display driver
may not support all the graphics cards in your computer.
Under Windows 98/Me/2000/XP, a display driver may support one or more graphics cards.
If a display driver doesn’t support a certain card, a different display driver must be used for
that card. Software that depends on a certain display driver may not work with a graphics
card that’s not using the same display driver.
Under Windows NT 4.0, only one display driver at a time may be used. To use more than one
graphics card, the display driver must support all the graphics cards installed. If an
unsupported graphics card is installed in your computer, that card either isn’t used or your
computer restarts in VGA mode (single-display, 640 × 480 resolution, 16 colors).
Note: Your primary display can’t be disabled.
Note: To restore display adapters, repeat steps 3 – 7 , but do the following in step 5 :
! Windows 98/Me – Clear the Disable in this hardware profile check box.
! Windows 2000/XP – Click Enable .
