ENABLING ENERGY SAVER
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

IMPORTANT: If you use Energy Saver with a monitor that does not meet the 
necessary VESA power management specifications, the monitor can be damaged.
Please consult your monitor's documentation.

1)  To enable Energy Saver:

    You can enable Energy Saver in the Monitor Selection window either 
    during Setup or with the Monitor Adjustment utility (under the Monitor 
    menu). 

    In the Monitor Selection window:

    a)  If the monitor you selected is listed under Monitor Models AND is 
	VESA power management compliant, then Energy Saver will be 
	automatically enabled.    

    b)  If you selected 'Generic Monitor' from the Monitor Models list and 
	clicked on the 'OK' button, then a second Monitor Selection window
	(for maximum monitor resolution selection) will appear. 
	
	Click on the 'Supports VESA Power Management' option button (at the 
	bottom of the window, below the Resolutions list) to enable Energy 
	Saver.

2)  To turn Energy Saver ON or OFF and set delays for Screen Saver and 
    Energy Saver:

    a)  Please read the Energy Saver section within #9 HawkEye Control 
	Panel Help (HawkEye Features).     
  
    b)  Double click on the Energy Saver icon in the #9 Control Panel to 
	access the Energy Saver controls. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENTS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In #9GXE Status, several options have been added to increase
the performance and reliability of your Windows applications:

1. Source Caching improves application performance by creating
   buffers of icons and bit maps. Default is ON.

2. Font Caching helps speed activities such as scrolling text by
   creating buffers of all active fonts. Default is ON.

3. Polygon Support increases drawing speed by taking the burden 
   of drawing polygons away from Windows and transferring it to 
   the #9GXE64 drawing engine. Default is ON.

4. Ellipse Support increases drawing speed by taking the burden 
   of drawing ellipses and circles away from Windows and 
   transferring it to the #9GXE64 drawing engine. Default is ON.

5. Validate Parameters improves application reliability by 
   forcing the #9GXE64 driver to check parameters before 
   issuing a drawing command.  An overwhelming majority of
   applications send valid parameters, so the default for 
   this option is OFF.

6. Memory Mapped IO helps to speed up overall performance.
   By default this option if ON.  Some virus checking TSR's may
   report an illegal memory access.  If this happens, your should
   temporarily disable the anti-virus program, turn this option OFF.

7. Pattern Patch helps speed up operations using patterns.
   By default, this option if OFF.  If you experience any pattern
   corruption when running your applications turn this option ON.
   
You may occasionally encounter difficulties using these caching
and performance enhancement methods. Although they were designed
for standard Windows programming methods to insure compatibility
with most Windows applications, programmers do not always use standard
Windows programming practices. They are constantly seeking ways to 
improve application performance, and if a nonstandard method
is discovered, it will probably be used. Consequently, our 
caching methods may not work correctly with every Windows 
application.

So, for example, if you experience a problem with your fonts in a
particular application, use #9GXE Status to disable Font Caching.


Using #9GXE Status to Enable and Disable Options:

1. Double click on the #9 HawkEye Control Panel icon, then double
   click on the #9GXE Status icon.

2. Click on the 'File' menu, then click on 'Options'.

3. To DISABLE a caching method:

   Click on the option button next to the option you want
   to disable. The black dot disappears when the method is
   disabled.

   To ENABLE a caching method:

   Click on the option button next to the option you want
   to enable. A black dot appears when the method is enabled.

4. Click 'OK' to exit and save your changes; click 'Cancel' to 
   exit without saving your changes.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------
TROUBLESHOOTING
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem: 
Your monitor is not listed in the Monitor Selection utility. 
   
Solution:
Please choose 'Generic Monitor'. This will not affect the performance of
your monitor.

			    * * *

Problem:
Your NEC 5FGE monitor is an Energy Saver monitor, but within the HawkEye 
Energy Saver window under 'Energy Saver' the text reads:

	"The monitor selected does not support the 
	 VESA power management specification."

Solution:
The NEC 5FGE monitor was NOT Energy Saver compliant for its first 6 months 
of manufacture. Therefore, to prevent damage to early non-Energy Saver 5FGE
monitors, Energy Saver is disabled for this monitor. 

However, 5FGE owners CAN enable Energy Saver but should read the following 
first.  

   To determine whether or not your NEC 5FGE is an Energy Saver version, 
   look at the part number (on the bottom of the monitor near the back).

	- P/N JC1731VMA-2 is NOT an Energy Saver monitor.

	- P/N JC1731VMA-3 IS an Energy Saver monitor.

   Owners of P/N JC1731VMA-3 NEC 5FGE monitors may safely enable Energy 
   Saver by

   a) choosing 'Generic Monitor' in the Monitor Selection window and 
   b) clicking on the 'Supports VESA Power Management' option button (at 
      the bottom of the 2nd Monitor Selection window, below the Resolutions 
      list).

For further information about Energy Saver, please read the ENABLING ENERGY 
SAVER section near the top of this README.TXT.  


			    * * *

Problem:
When you double click on icons in the #9 HawkEye Control Panel 
they blink but nothing happens.

Solution:
Close one or more other open applications to free up memory.
			    * * *


Problem:
The output from a video playback card (that uses the #9GXE64 PRO or 
#9GXE64 TRIO VGA loop through connector) is missing or corrupted. 

Solution:
#9GXE64 PRO:
The #9GXE64 PRO supports the VGA loop through connector at 640 x 480
by 256 color resolution. To enable the WINDOWS driver for loop
through support run #9GXE STATUS from the #9 HawkEye Control Panel.
Select OPTIONS from the FILE menu.  Select the "Enable Loop Through"
option (option buttons are black when enabled).  You must then restart 
WINDOWS, at 640x480 by 256 color resolution, for loop through to be 
enabled .

#9GXE64 TRIO:
The #9GXE64 TRIO also supports the loop through connector at 640 X 480
by 256 color resolution.  However, at power up the feature connector is
not enabled.  A DOS utility called FCON.EXE is provided on the setup 
diskette that will enable loop through.  If you need this program, copy
it from the diskette into the Windows directory on your hard drive. This 
file is not copied as part of running setup.  

To ENABLE Trio loop through:
   - In DOS, move to your Windows directory. 
   - At the DOS prompt
	 type: 9reset    <Enter>
	 type: fcon e p  <Enter>
   - Start Windows
 
To DISABLE Trio loop through:  
   - In DOS, move to your Windows directory. 
   - At the DOS prompt, type: fcon d  <Enter>
   - Start Windows 

!!!NOTE TO 2 MEGABYTE TRIO USERS!!! 
   The FCON.EXE utility enables loop through by configuring your two 
   megabyte #9GXE64 TRIO as if it had only one megabyte of video memory. 
   This reduces the number of higher resolutions available.    
   To reconfigure your card for two megabyte operation (and re-enable 
   higher resolutions) you will need to re-boot your computer. FCON with
   the D option will disable loop through, but will not reconfigure the 
   card for two megabytes. 


Watchit Pro TV Board Users:
   - You may need to experiment with moving data rate jumper 
     HDR2 (on the Watchit Pro TV board). 
   - You may also need to change Watchit's Overlay Color Key to a 
     color that allows the video to display properly.
   
     Consult your Watchit Pro documentation or contact New Media 
     Graphics technical support for further information.

ReelMagic Users:
     Consult your ReelMagic documentation or contact Sigma Designs 
     technical support for further information.      


			 * * *



Problem:
During installation with SETUP, the following error is 
displayed (possibly several times):

   Compression Error: Unable to locate Destination file.

Solution:
This error is displayed when the amount of disk space is
insufficient to install the Number Nine software. SETUP 
currently requires about 2.5MB of disk space on the disk 
containing Windows.

Note: If you are upgrading a previous version of HawkEye, you 
      can increase the amount of available disk space by deleting 
      all the files in the NUMBER9 directory (a subdirectory in  
      your WINDOWS directory).


			   * * *


Problem:  

The Program Manager appears briefly when you start Windows, 
then Windows exits to DOS.

Solution:
1. There may be a problem with the #9 HawkEye Control Panel. The
   Control Panel is loaded when Windows is started, so a problem 
   could occur after the Windows driver has been loaded and the 
   Program Manager (or another Windows shell) is presented.

   To prevent HawkEye from loading when Windows is started, delete
   the reference to HawkEye from the "load=" line in the [windows] 
   section of the WIN.INI file in the WINDOWS directory. This will
   determine whether the problem is with the HawkEye Control Panel, 
   or other software. The line will look something like this:

       load=c:\WINDOWS\NUMBER9\HAWKEYE.EXE nwpopup.exe

   Delete WINDOWS\NUMBER9\HAWKEYE.EXE from the line, then exit 
   Windows. If the problem persists when you restart Windows, see
   Solution 2, following.

2. The HawkEye configuration file (HAWKEYE.INI) may be corrupted.
   In this case, rename HAWKEYE.INI in the WINDOWS directory to 
   HAWKSAVE.INI (for future reference), then copy HAWKEYE.INI from
   the #9GXE64 Windows Installation Disk to the WINDOWS directory. 
   This reinstates the original HawkEye configuration.


			   * * *


Problem:
Windows appears with a black box cursor and/or icons that fail to
appear on the screen.

Solution:
The problem is caused by an incompatibility with the motherboard's 
non-compliant PCI BIOS. The motherboard's BIOS does not comply 
with the PCI's backwards compatibility requirement.  The method to
allow the #9GXE64 PCI board to function properly is to set the
board's memory aperture manually by editing the SYSTEM.INI file.
which is located in the WINDOWS directory. Use any text editor 
(NOTEPAD will work) to open the file. In the [display] section add 
the following line:

	  [display]
	  APERTURE-BASE=XXXXXX

		where: XXXXXX may be 0x8800 or 0x7800 

Save the file and restart Windows.          


			    * * *


Problem: 
Your monitor resolution is not the resolution you selected.

Solution:
   Resolution Exchange (in #9 HawkEye for Windows program group) 
   must be used to change the resolution. This changes the 
   resolution in the #9GXE64 configuration file, which determines 
   what your monitor resolution will be. If you used 
   MS Windows Setup to select a display driver with a different
   resolution/color depth configuration, that configuration 
   is not used unless it matches the configuration in the
   #9GXE64 configuration file.

To use Resolution Exchange to change the resolution:

1. Press the hot key you assigned to Resolution Exchange or
   double click on the Resolution Exchange icon in the HawkEye
   for Windows program group in the Windows Program Manager.

2. Click on a Colors option button to select color depth.

3. Select a resolution.
   Be sure you select a resolution your monitor supports.

4. Click 'OK'.

5. Restart Windows.


			   * * *


Problem: 
Resolution Exchange displays the following message:

   "There was an error opening the configuration file."

Solution:
The #9GXE64 configuration file could be corrupted. To restore the 
#9GXE64 configuration file to its original settings, run 9RESET.EXE 
per the following instructions:

Note: 9RESET.EXE was placed in your WINDOWS directory when you
      installed the Number Nine Windows driver with SETUP.

1. Exit Windows.

2. Move to the WINDOWS directory.

3. At the DOS prompt, type:  9RESET  and press [Enter]. 

This sets your #9GXE64 to 640x480 by 256 color resolution at 60Hz. 
If your monitor supports higher resolutions, restart Windows and use 
Resolution Exchange to select a higher resolution.


			   * * *


Problem:
The #9GXE64 board is properly installed in your system, but you
receive one of the following error messages:

   Failed to find the #9GXE64 board!
   Hit any key to continue.

	      or

   SETUP is operational only when a #9 graphics board 
   is present. Please be sure your #9 graphics board is 
   properly installed before you try to use SETUP or 
   any other HawkEye feature.


Solution:
You probably have a memory manager in your system that has
remapped the video BIOS. Memory managers often do this because it 
increases the amount of DOS memory space. However, when the GXE64 
signature in the video BIOS is remapped, GXE64 software is unable 
to identify the #9GXE64 board.

ROM remapping should be excluded from the C000-C7FF address range.  
To exclude the address range, add the following option to the 
memory manager driver command line in the CONFIG.SYS file in your 
root directory:
  
      X=C000-C7FF 

For QEMM386.EXE the line should look something like this:

      DEVICE=QEMM386.SYS X=C000-C7FF 


For EMM386.EXE the line should look something like this:

      DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=C000-C7FF 

Consult your memory manager's documentation for more information 
about excluding the C000-C7FF address range.   


			   * * *


Problem: 
1. The Windows logo appears, then the screen becomes black and
   your system hangs or exits to DOS.

2. Text is garbled, icons are corrupted and/or 'holes' appear on
   your screen.

3. Windows pull-down menus corrupt the screen.

Solution:
Another device in your system, such as a modem or tablet, is 
using the same IO address as the #9GXE64, COM 4 I/O port at 2E8H. 
Move the other device to a different COM port location.  


			   * * *

Problem:
In Quark Express, floating menus or toolbars appear in the center of  
your screen.

Solution:
Use Place Windows to center message windows in your virtual
desktop.

1. Double click on the #9 HawkEye Control Panel icon, then 
   double click on the Place Windows icon.

2. Click on the 'Virtual' button in the 'Messages In' section.

3. Click 'OK'.

    
			   * * *

Problem:
On the #9GXE64Pro, when zooming from a high resolution to 640x480
resolution, the user may see intermittent horizontal lines flashing
when scrolling or panning.

Solution:
The horizontal lines will disappear if the user continues to pan.
If the lines are bothersome, the minimum zoom resolution can be 
changed to 800x600 using the Zoom utility in the HawkEye Control Panel. 

			    * * *

Problem:
After a monitor is chosen in Monitor List, Monitor Adjustment
shows a different refresh rate than the one saved.

Solution:
Monitor Adjustment allows the user to choose higher refresh
rates because monitors often support slightly higher refresh
rates than stated in their specifications.  The Test feature
in Monitor Adjustment allows the user to test these refresh 
rates before using them, so that their monitor is not damaged 
by non-supported refresh rates.


			    * * *                                

Problem:
When using Energy Saver, the monitor goes into Energy Saver
mode instead of Screen Saver mode.

Solution:
Some monitors respond to the blank screen of Screen Saver mode
by setting themselves to Energy Saver mode.  This is a feature of
your monitor. Please reference your monitor's user manual for more 
information.


			    * * *

											     
Problem:
When using a 256 color background, closing Microsoft Art Gallery 
may leave an overlaid 16 color "shadow". 

Solution:
In Windows Control Panel under Desktop select a desktop pattern
other than 'none'. 

 
			    * * *

											     
Problem:
Using Colorperfect with a GXE64 board at 640x480 by 16,777,216 colors 
will produce an error message asking the user to select 65,536 or more 
colors. 
   
Solution:
The GXE64 board does not support Colorperfect at this resolution. Therefore,
the Colorperfect icon should not be available. Please ignore the error 
message.

 

			    * * *
											     
Problem:
Monitor Adjustment is missing from the #9 HawkEye Control Panel when
using a GXE64 1MB at a resolution of 600x480 with 16,777,216 
colors. 
   
Solution:
The Monitor Adjustment utility is not supported at this resolution. 
The user must use the DOS-based 64 refresh on the PowerPac disk. 


			    * * *

											     
Problem:
Very small lines flash on the screen at monitor resolution 640x480, 
65,536 colors, virtual resolution 2048x480 and refresh rate of 76Hz.  
   
Solution:
Reduce the refresh rate at this virtual resolution.


			    * * *

											     
Problem:
When running Knowledge Adventure 3D-Dinosaur Adventure, Knowledge Adventure
Speed, or Knowledge Adventure Undersea Adventure with a #9GXE64PRO, no video
is present.
   
Solution:
The file UNDOCVGA.EXE is included on your Windows disk. Run UNDOCVGA.EXE and 
try running the game again.  Please call Number Nine Technical Support if 
necessary.

[System.ini]
Each Network user will have their own System.ini file located in their
personal Windows directory.  This file must be edited to reflect the 
following changes.

[boot]           
386grabber=S3911GRB.3GR
display.drv=#9gxe64.drv
286grabber=VGACOLOR.2gr

[boot.description]
display.drv=#9gxe64.drv 

[386Enh]
display=VDDS3VSN.386
EMMExclude=C000-C7FF

[#9GXE]
warp=Impulse
FONT-CACHING=ON
SCACHE=ON
POLYGON-SUPPORT=ON
ELLIPSE-SUPPORT=ON
FastMMIO=ON
LOOP-THROUGH=OFF
VSYNC-WAIT=ON
PATTERN-PATCH=OFF

[9RESET]
From the users Windows directory, Run 9RESET.  This creates the NUMBER9 
file in the ROOT directory of the C drive.  This sets The #9GXE64 
resolution to 640x480x256 colors.  This resolution may be changed later.  
The NUMBER9 file may also be moved to a network drive. This also will be 
explained further in this document.

After executing 9RESET and making the changes to the SYSTEM.INI, you are 
ready to run Windows.
RUN WINDOWS NOW!

You will now want to add a Program Group entitled #9 HawkEye Feature Set 
to the Program Manager.  Add HAWKEYE.EXE and REXCHANG.EXE  programs that 
you copied to the NUMBER9 subdirectory under Windows.
Copy the Hawkeye icon into the StartUp Group or add
C:\WINDOWS\NUMBER9\HAWKEYE.EXE to the LOAD= line in the users WIN.INI File.

SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR OVERRIDE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

CFG=
When the Number Nine Windows driver and HawkEye initialize, they
read the NUMBER9 configuration file that contains information about
the #9GXE64. The root directory of C drive (C:\)is searched first.
If NUMBER9 is not found, Windows is asked for the location of the
WINDOWS directory. If NUMBER9 is not found in the NUMBER9 subdirectory
in the WINDOWS directory, an error may be reported.

If you want to move or rename NUMBER9, you can do so by adding a 
CFG entry to the [#9GXE] section of the SYSTEM.INI file in the
WINDOWS directory. The entry would look something like this:

    [#9GXE]
    ; Moved the configuration file to new name and location.
    CFG=c:\bin\configs\number9

HAWKEYE=
When HawkEye is installed, its files are placed in the NUMBER9
subdirectory in the WINDOWS directory. HawkEye utilities require
this path to function.

If you want to move the HawkEye files (e.g., to a network), you 
can do so by adding a HAWKEYE entry to the [#9GXE] section of the
SYSTEM.INI file in the WINDOWS directory. 

Note: The entry should contain the drive letter and full path, 
      but NOT an individual file name. Do not put a backslash 
      at the end of the path unless the HawkEye files are 
      placed in the root directory.

The entry would look something like this:

    [#9GXE]
    ;Moved the #9 HawkEye utilities to the network
    ;so they can be shared by all #9GXE users.
    HAWKEYE=u:\users\shared\windows\number9

OTHER PROBLEMS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Software sometimes does not perform consistently across all
resolutions and color depths. If you experience a persistent 
problem for which you cannot determine a cause or solution, try 
switching to a different resolution with Resolution Exchange.  

If you have a problem that is not described in this file or is
unresolved when you try the suggested solutions, please call 
Number Nine Technical Support at (617) 674-8595, from 8:00 AM to 
6:00 PM, EST/EDT, Monday through Friday. Please be prepared with 
as much information about your #9GXE64 as possible. Our Fax number
is (617) 674-2919. Please send all fax inquiries to the attention 
of Technical Support. 

In Windows, information can be obtained by clicking on the 
#9GXE Status icon from the #9 HawkEye Control Panel.  The
#9 HawkEye Control Panel can be run from either the #9GXE64
Windows Driver or the VGA windows driver.

If you are unable to install the #9GXE64 Windows Driver, run 
MS Windows Setup from DOS and select VGA as the display type.
If you are unable to run Windows in VGA mode, the problem is
most likely with Windows, and not with the #9GXE64 Windows driver.
