║ The following instruction describe how to install ║
║ the Paradise extended video drivers for Windows 3.0 ║
╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
step 1 - If you have already installed Windows 3.0 on your system, goto step
2. You do NOT have to re-install windows to change the driver.
Otherwise, run 'setup' from the Microsoft Windows Disk 1 and follow
the instructions from step 4 when System Information list is
displayed.
step 2 - Go to the directory where you have installed Windows 3.0.
step 3 - Type 'setup' and press ENTER.
step 4 - Select the 'Display:' option from the System Information list using
the UP and DOWN ARROW keys and press ENTER.
step 5 - Scroll to the bottom of the list displayed using the DOWN ARROW key.
step 6 - Select 'Other' in the list and press ENTER. You will then be asked
to insert the OEM display driver disk.
step 7 - Put the Paradise VGA display driver disk in the drive you want to
use. Type in the correct pathname for the display driver disk if
the default path shown is wrong (i.e. 'A:\').
step 8 - Select the desired driver from the list defined on the disk and
press ENTER. You may be asked to insert the "Paradise display driver
disk" again. If so, again type in the correct pathname (i.e. 'A:\')
and press ENTER. Once the driver has been selected you will
return to the original configuration screen.
step 9 - Choose 'Accept configuration shown above' and press ENTER to execute
the 'Complete Changes' process. Windows will return to DOS when the
configuration has been completed.
========================== Installation Complete ============================
NOTE:
1 - You can NOT run 'Setup' within Windows itself.
2 - The COLORS.EXE file is a windows program which will display the
total colors available with the chosen driver.
3 - When installing Windows for the first time and electing to select
one of the drivers provided on the Paradise display driver disk;
Windows setup program at some time will prompt you with the following
message:
Setup needs the following disk
without giving the name of the disk. It is in fact requesting the
Paradise display driver disk. So, put the Paradise driver display
disk in the drive, type the complete path and press ENTER.
4 - To obtain a larger font with the 1024x768 drivers, you can edit
the OEMSETUP.INF file on the OEMSETUP disk. This must be done BEFORE
you install the drivers from the OEM setup disk. This will tell the
Windows Setup file what font files to install for use with Windows.
You must change the font size in the [display] section for the
1024 driver. Be sure to use a ASCII TEXT editor like Microsoft's
Notepad to make the changes. DO NOT use an editor that will insert
control characters like MS Word, or MS Write.
To do this, change:
vga1024 = A:vga1024.drv, "Paradise VGA 1024x768 16-color", "100,96,96"........
to:
vga1024 = A:vga1024.drv, "Paradise VGA 1024x768 16-color", "100,120,120"........
^ ^
You need only change the two paramaters marked.
DO NOT change anything else.
