If you have one of the video adapters listed in the previous section and want to run DOS or Windows applications that make use of SVGA, you must turn on OS/2 2.0 SVGA support. The OS/2 Installation program detects the type of video chip in the system; it cannot detect the type of adapter or system board on which the video chip has been implemented. You must determine that you have a supported configuration and then explicitly enable SVGA.
To enable SVGA, type the following at an OS/2 command prompt or DOS full-screen command prompt:
SVGA ON
Then do a shutdown and restart the system.
