- VGA.DRV
- --------
- This is a special version of the Windows 95 VGA
- display driver. It works around a compatibility
- problem between the Intel "Triton" PCI controller
- and some PCI based display adapters.
-
- If you have a PCI based computer and are
- experiencing system lock-ups on the first boot
- after installing your PCI display adapter,
- in "fail-safe boot", or when your display is
- set to 640x480, 16 colors, then you should
- copy this version of VGA.DRV over the version
- already in your Windows \system directory.
-
- VGA.VXD
- --------
- This is an extension to the Win95 VGA driver
- needed on some older VGA adapters, including:
- DEC PC 320P laptops
- Cirrus Logic 5401/02 VGA adapters
-
- If Win95 will not boot at all, even in fail-safe
- boot, on a computer with a very old VGA adapter
- installed, then VGA.VXD may correct the problem.
-
- To use VGA.VXD, the display type must be set
- to "Standard Graphics Adapter (VGA)" in the
- Display control panel, Settings page, Change
- Adapter Type dialog.
-
- To install:
- 1) Copy VGA.VXD into the Win95 \system subdirectory.
- 2) In SYSTEM.INI, edit the display= line in the [386enh]
- section to add vga.vxd, so that it appears as:
- display=*vdd, vga.vxd
- 3) In SYSTEM.CB, add the line above to the [386enh] section.
- (This file is used instead of system.ini for fail-safe boot.)
- 4) Restart the computer, and Win95 should boot normally.
