1 Introduction
This file explains how to configure the ELSA graphics
driver setup.
1.1 Requirements
This software only runs on Windows NT 4.0.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
2 Installation
NOTE: This software was designed for full functionality
under Windows NT 4.0 only!
There are several ways to use the ELSA setup:
- Using the default setup wizard (2.1)
- Using commandline switches (2.2)
2.1 Using the default setup wizard
This is the option users should usually choose.
Start setup by double clicking the executable.
Setup guides the user through the installation process.
The user is informed if conflicts or problems are detected,
and asked for interaction.
2.2 Using commandline switches
This method is for advanced users (System Administrators)
to help them setting up machine in a comfortable way.
WARNING: Using any of the provided commandline switches
is highly dangerous unless you do not exactly know
what you are about to do.
2.2.1 The commandline switches
All commandline switches do not need leading - or / to
function correct. So do not provide these chars otherwise
setup may not function as desired.
You may provide the switches in any order. If you enter an
option twice, the first occurance is used.
SILENT Using this option forces the setupwizard to work
without most of the userinteraction.
If the setupwizard encounters conflicts or
problems during the installation process, the
setup terminates.
( i.e. Graphics adapter and display driver do
not match.)
FORCE This option passes any conflicts which have been
detected during the setup process.
REBOOT If this switch is given, setup does automatically
reboot the system upon finishing the installation
process.
XRES=XYZ At the next reboot the system will start with the
provided horizontal resolution. Where XYZ is the
decimal value in pixel.
YRES=XYZ At the next reboot the system will start with the
provided vertical resolution. Where XYZ is the
decimal value in pixel.
BPP=XYZ At the next reboot the system will start with the
provided colordepth. Where XYZ is the decial value
in bits per pixel.
HZ=XYZ At the next reboot the system will start with the
provided frequency. Where XYZ is the decimal value
in hz.
Expecially the switches concerning the predifined resolution
are extremely dangerous. If your attached monitor or display
adapter do not function with the provided values, you may
even destroy your hardware. Therefore use these switches
carefully.
Example: setup.exe XRES=1024 YRES=768 BPP=32 HZ=75
forces the system to start with a resolution of
1024x768 in true color at 75 hz.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
3 Deinstallation
The ELSA Setup utility has prepared an easy way to deinstall your
display adapter software.
Call the uninstaller to remove the display adapter driver and all
related utilities.
The unistaller can be found in the ControlPanel under Add/Remove
Software.
Double click with the left mousebutton on the entry for the graphics
adapter you want to deinstall.
When the deinstalltion process has finished, you are liked to reboot
the system.
After the reboot the system comes up using the standard-VGA resolution.
