- NCR 32 BIT DISPLAY DRIVERS
- for OS/2
- Please Note:
- ------------
-
- 1. These drivers are intended for OS/2 2.1
-
- 2. If the standard VGA (640x480x16) drivers are installed
- after installing NCR high resolution drivers, an extra line
- may be left in config.sys that will generate a warning message.
- This is the result of an attempt to load two virtual video
- drivers ( DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\(VirtualVideoDriver).SYS ).
- Simply edit CONFIG.SYS and delete the the extra line.
-
- Example: After installing NCR's SVGA drivers and reinstalling
- the standard VGA drivers, CONFIG.SYS may have
- these two lines:
-
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VSVGANCR.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VVGA.SYS
-
- Simply delete (or remark) the NCR driver to use the
- standard VGA driver.
-
- REM DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VSVGANCR.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VVGA.SYS
-
- 3. All 800x600 full screen WINOS2 sessions will run at 56Hz verticle
- refresh. If you have a multisynch monitor (type 03) and you wish
- to display 800x600 modes at 72Hz verticle refresh rate, then edit
- your config.sys and change the following line from:
-
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\HIGH_RES.SYS /V /M:01
- to:
- DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\HIGH_RES.SYS /V /M:03
