The instructions which follow are applicable to users of
Microsoft Windows 3.0 and PowerGraph VGA based adapters.
Note that, to use 800x600 and 1024x768 modes, an ANALOG color display capable of these high resolutions is required.
The "PowerGraph VGA - Utility/Driver Disk" contains 256color
and high-resolution drivers, as well as a file called SETUP.INF that replaces the files of the same name on the Microsoft Windows 3.0 Setup "DISK 1" diskette. Follow the instructions listed below carefully to install the drivers.
Note: The driver for 800x600x256 requires 1 Mb. of memory to be installed on the PowerGraph VGA.
Instructions:
1. Make a DISKCOPY of the Setup "Disk 1" diskette.
Example (for systems with a single floppy and hard drive):
C:>DISKCOPY A: A:
The system will use drive A: for both the original and the copy as the source and target diskettes are inserted
alternately for the copy.
2. After the copy is made, return the original to its jacket and store safely.
3. Copy the file SETUP.INF from the PowerGraph VGA Utility/Driver Disk to the newly-created copy of the Setup "Disk 1".This file is located in the \WIN30 directory.
Example (for systems with a single floppy and hard drive)
C:>COPY A:SETUP.INF B:
The system will use drive A: as drive B: also. After the copy is finished, type A: [ENTER].
4. Type SETUP [ENTER] to begin installation of Windows 3.0.
5. Review the configuration list when it is shown. If you wish to change Display type, move the cursor (highlighted line) to the "Display:" line and press [ENTER] to select from the available list.
6. The program will ask you to insert the PowerGraph VGA
Windows 3.0 Driver Disk in order to install the drivers as
required. After this is done, the installation program will continue normally.
After you complete the above steps you can begin using Windows 3.0.
Note: If you wish to change the display type after completing the installation, click on the Windows Setup icon found in the Main desktop window.
