If you have ALREADY installed Windows 3.0, you can copy the above list of
files into the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory. After you copy the files, change
the display configuration from within the SETUP program to one of the extended
drivers. See the Windows documentation for further information.
When you run the Windows Setup to change to a different driver Windows may
prompt you for some of the Windows Installation diskettes. The drivers use
display fonts which are contained on the standard Windows 3.0 distribution
diskettes.
The drivers have various display memory requirements and of course your display
monitor must be able to support the resolution you select.
The drivers support the following:
