Installation of TIGA 2.05 Driver for the NEC MGE board date: 05-29-91
------------------------------------------------------
1. Copy all TIGA files to your hard disk by :
- Run the install batch file (install.bat) on the TIGA diskette, e.g.
a:\install a: c: where a: is the source drive
and c: is the destination drive
*********************************************************************
NOTE: IF YOU HAD AN OLD TIGA VERSION, YOU MAY NEED TO REMOVE IT
BEFORE INSTALLING THE NEW ONE.
*********************************************************************
TIGA 2.0 compatibility requirements
-----------------------------------
The following files are provided on the TIGA diskette in order
to meet TIGA 2.0 compatibility requirements:
tigacd.exe Host-resident TIGA communication driver
tigagm.out TMS340-resident Graphics Manager
extprims.rlm TIGA Graphics Library extension
setup.exe TIGA setup utility
tiga.cl TIGA board configuration library file
tiga.cfg TIGA configuration file
tigacnfg.exe TIGA mode utility
tigalnk.exe TIGA linking loader (for old app support)
oldap.exe (optional)
2. Add the following lines to your autoexec.bat file :
set PATH=d:\pathname
set TIGA=-md:\pathname -ld:\pathname -i0x60
where "d:" is the drive and "pathname" is the directory where
the TIGA files reside in.
3. Reboot system :
- Change directory to TIGA directory.
- Run the SETUP utility, selecting the correct board configuration
parameters to build the tiga.cfg file.
- Run "tigacd.exe"
The TIGA communications driver is now installed.
The TIGA communications driver can be removed from memory by the
following command :
tigacd -u [return]
- Run "tigalnk -lx" to load the TIGA Graphics Manager, (this is optional
as the GM will be loaded automatically on running the first TIGA
application, but this will show up any errors in the previous steps
at this point).
3. Run the demo programs :
The TIGA driver is now installed. Demonstration programs are supplied
in the \demos directory which you can run at this time.
4. Changing modes (resolution)
---------------------------
This version of the TIGA driver (2.05.03) supports two modes.
Mode 0 = 1024 x 786 x 8 Non-interlaced
Mode 1 = 800 x 600 x 8 Interlaced
To change modes use the tigacnfg.exe program supplied on the
distribution disk as follows:
> tigacnfg [return]
The current configuration will be displayed. Press the space bar to
toggle through the modes, and press the enter key to select the mode
currently displayed as the new startup mode. Press escape to exit.
Alternately you can enter: tigacnfg n
Where n = the mode number you wish to select as the new startup mode.
Run your application it should run in the default mode you have selected.
(There are some applications that select modes internally (usually
mode 0), in this case you may have to run tigacnfg again for your
other applications.)
Installing the TIGA Windows 3.0 Display Driver, Version 1.30
------------------------------------------------------------
Change to subdirectory WIN3 on the TIGA distribution diskette and read
file "readme.1st" to install TIGA Windows Display Driver. Remember when
the Windows setup asks for display driver disk and TIGA Windows OEMSETUP
disk, type a:\win3 and hit Enter
