║ SPEA V7 V7SETUP: Hints / Known Limitations ║
╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
1) During first installation driver will be installed with the
lowest possible refresh rate at the chosen resolution.
If you use a high-class multi-sync monitor and you choose a
resolution 1024x768 and above, synchronisation problems may occure.
To prevent this, please choose at first the resolution
640x480. Afterwards you can change to the prefered resolution and
refresh rate with the utility V7SETUP, witch appeares automatically
after starting Windows.
2) While installing the Windows drivers, you may be prompted for the
"V7-MIRAGE Driver for Windows disk" and the drive A:\ will be
displayed. When this happens, enter "B:\" if this diskette is in the
B: drive.
If "Problem with disk drive A:" message is displayed, and the
installation disk is in drive B, press ESC twice, and re-enter "B:"
in the space provided.
The cause for these inquiries is a Microsoft WINDOWS routine.
3) Installing graphical drivers for Windows and Virus Check Programs
Virus check programs, such as the DOS 6.0 internal one, which search
for changes at *.exe and *.com files, detect changes at the file
win.com after installing the SPEA V7 BigWin driver. This is not a
virus, because while installing the driver, driver supplements will
be saved in this file.

║ SPEA V7 BigWin Driver : Known Limitations ║
╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
1) The SPEA V7 BigWin Driver may not be used in 80286 based
systems.
2) VDD limitation: Cannot execute any VGA graphics modes in a
windowed mode. The XGA driver supplied by Microsoft has a similiar
limitation.
3) True Color:
If you use more than 15 icons at one program group, a message will
tell you that not all symbols are converted correctly. These symbols
will be displayed black. This is caused by a Microsoft Program Manager
limitation.
Last minute:
If you have problems with icons (corrupted) or the first letter
of an active window is corrupted then check your SYSTEM.INI,
header [CAR1K.DRV] and change the flag
CHIPSYNC=0
to CHIPSYNC=1.
True Color und High Color drivers have problems writing texts
in the application Picture Publisher.
High Color drivers have problems with the application Organizer
(Planner).
CorelDraw - you may possibly encounter a problem when creating a
color flow in an object, when the flow angle is not vertical or
horizontal. Black lines may appear in the color flow. This problem
has occasionally appeared with 256 and High Color modes, but not
with True Color Mode.
