- About WinG from Microsoft Corporation
- ====================================
- The first time a WinG application runs in a new video mode or after
- a new display driver has been installed, WinG performs a performance
- test to determine the fastest way to display graphics to your display.
- You will only see this performance test once for a any given video mode.
- On slower machines the test may last several minutes. WinG is part
- of the new Chicago (Windows 95) version of Windows graphical interface.
-
- WinG version 1.0 provides the fastest graphics to screen capabilities
- under Windows 3.1, Windows for Workgroups 3.11, Windows 95, and
- Windows NT version 3.5. WinG will not run on Windows NT version 3.1
- or on earlier versions of Windows.
-
- WinG requires a 386 or better processor to run.
- WinG will not run on a 286.
- See WING.TXT file for more information.
