TWEAK, version 3
TWEAK makes it possible to run Windows 3.0 with 800x564
resolution with standard VGA cards, that are fully
compatible with IBM cards. Some monitors are not able to
sync to the mode TWEAK generates and it may cause too much
flicker to be useable.
Here is the procedure to utilize TWEAK:
1. Make sure, that TWEAK is run before Windows is
started. There are many ways to do this: you can add
line
TWEAK
to your AUTOEXEC.BAT, or you can run it manually every
time. You can also make a batch that first runs TWEAK
and then Windows, but this causes TWEAK to be loaded
multiple times, if you start Windows more than once.
2. Copy the supplied driver, VGA800.DRV, by copying it
to the windows system directory. E.g:
COPY VGA800.DRV C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM
3. Install the new driver by editing the SYSTEM.INI
file. Find the line in [boot] section:
display.drv=vga.drv
and change the driver name to vga800.drv:
display.drv=vga800.drv
You can switch back to the standard VGA mode by
restoring the driver name to vga.drv.
