Try the latest drivers for the card and get directX 7 and try that.
There is no way to disable the video check in the game ... it's
automatic as soon as you change adapters or drivers to insure optimum
performance for the game.

You might be able to disable hardware acceleration to get the matrox
card through the automatic profiling the first time then re-enable it
to play on your primary card.
