2.0 Installation Notes
DO NOT TASK SWITCH WHILE RUNNING THE INSTALL PROGRAM.
1. Ensure that you have a copy LOADER.ZIP. It is available on the ATI
BBS, ftp site (ftp.atitech.ca), and on our CompuServe forum (GO
ATITECH).
2. Ensure that you have a copy of PKUNZIP.EXE, v1.10 or later. PKUNZIP
is available on most BBS and information services, including the ATI
BBS and CompuServe.
3. Open a full screen DOS session.
4. Unzip LOADER.ZIP and 32OS2260.ZIP into the same temporary directory
on your hard disk, then run the LOADER.EXE utility. For example:
MD \ATITEMP
PKUNZIP LOADER.ZIP \ATITEMP
PKUNZIP 32OS2260.ZIP \ATITEMP
CD \ATITEMP
LOADER.EXE
5. Follow the screen prompts for installing the OS/2 driver.
6. Once the driver has been installed, you can delete the contents of
the temporary directory (DEL \ATITEMP\*.*) and delete the directory
itself (RD \ATITEMP).
7. We recommend that you keep a copy of the ZIP files (32OS2260.ZIP and
LOADER.ZIP), in case you need to install the driver again.
8. Run DSPINSTL from within an OS/2 window.
9. When the Display Driver Install panel appears, select Primary
Display and click OK to bring up a list of choices. You should see an
option for ATI mach32.
10. Select 'ATI mach32 (Enhanced 2.6)' from the list and click OK. If a
error message pops-up, which says "The installed adapter does not
support the selected display driver. Do you wish to continue?" ignore
it and click OK.
11. When the source directory panel appears, select 'Change' and enter:
C:\MACH_OS2 (if you don't use c: as you boot drive replace it with the
appropriate drive letter) Click 'Set' and then 'Install'. After the
files are copied, exit the OS/2 window or full screen session. Shut
down and restart your system.
12. The PM driver will first come up in 640x480, 256 colors mode. Use
the following steps to change the screen resolutions or number of
colors:
a) Open 'OS/2 System' icon.
b) Open 'System Setup' icon.
c) Open 'System' icon.
b) Select the 'Screen' tab.
e) Select the desired resolution and number of colors from the list.
f) Double click on the system menu icon or select close from the
system menu to close the window.
