Graphics card works fine in Windows but has some problems with some
games but really messes up in this game.  Screen has lines and cones
shooting everywhere and you can't see where you are going.  Using
driver 5.6.7.2, Direct X 9.0b.  Intel 82810E Controller shows up as a
display adapter but isn't being used.

Geforce4 MX is the primary display adapter.
I see no way in bios to disable the Intel video

Hi,

Can you try going to the display properties -> advanced options ->
performance and quality settings, and turn off Antialiasing and
Anisotropic filtering.

Thanks.

I turned off Antialiasing and Anisotropic filtering but it didn't make
any difference.  Sounded promising, though.

Can you try installing the lastest version of the drivers please?

The problem is most likely that you didn't disable your onboard video
when you install your PCI graphics card.  You'll need to do this in
the BIOS.  However, because there are so many different versions and
types, it is hard to tell you exactly how.

The reason your seeing the cones, distorted shapes, however is most
likely because of the Intel "extreme" graphics not being capable of
hardware T&L, which is required in most new games.

If possible, try setting the Geforce4 MX to your "primary display
adapter" using the display icon in your control panel.

If nothing else works you could try using the Intel graphics as the
primary display driver and see if that works. If you're only running
Tony Hawk 1 ( Or another early version ) it should work fine.
