2 Installation instructions
2.1 Preparation
Note: If there were already other GLint based boards
installed, their referring "oemx.inf" and
"oemx.pnf" files (where "x" read as numbers) in
the INF subdirectory of your system have to be
deleted. This is to ensure that the Plug&Play
recognition of Windows 2000 is working properly.
Copy all listed driver files to a formatted disk (or a
temporary directory). Uninstall all display adapter devices
under CONTROL PANEL/SYSTEM/HARDWARE/DEVICE MANAGER/DISPLAY
ADAPTERS. Remove your floppy disk and reboot your system.
2.2 Installation
Windows 2000 uses Plug&Play functions to recognize your
display adapter. Here is how:
1. Device recognized. The "Found New Hardware" wizard
will guide you.
- click "Next" - choose option
"Display a list of the known drivers ..."
- click "Next"
- choose "Display Adapters"
- click "Next"
- click "Have Disk..."
- choose the directory from (2.1)
- click "Ok"
- choose entry "ELSA GLoria II
- click "Next"
- click "Next"
- click "Yes".
Now the driver will be installed.
- click "Finish.
2. The installtion of the display driver is finished now.
Remove your floppy disk and reboot your system now.
Note: Depending on your monitor at the next reboot
Plug&Play will recognize and install a monitor
device.
2.3 Verification
Open CONTROL PANEL/DISPLAY/SETTINGS. Verify that you can
read "Plug and Play Monitor on ELSA GLoria II".
You should now be able to use a resolution higher than
800x600.
2.4 Adjusting Refresh Frequencies
Click "Advanced" Button on Display Properties Page. Go to
Monitor Properties Page and use the DropDown-List "Refresh
Frequency".

3 Additional Configuration Options
3.1 Additional Tools
3.1.1 ELSA Application Settings
The ELSA Application Settings allow you to configure the 3D
options of your ELSA GLoria graphics board. You will find
this tool as a tab in the display properties.
You also will find a detailed description by clicking the
Help key.
3.1.2 ELSA Info
ELSA Info offers a quick view of all relevant information
about your hard- and software configuration. First of all,
this is a diagnostic tool, which should help you in solving
configuration problems of your graphics system.
You can redirect all shown information to file or printer.
The generated output will be helpful in getting quick
and efficient support from ELSA.
3.1.3 ELSA Settings
The ELSA Settings utility is not shipped with this driver.
Read the Known Bugs section for a workaround.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
4 Known Bugs / Restrictions
Doing a shutdown->restart on certain machines may sometimes
cause the system to come up to a black screen.
In this case, please power-cycle the machine.
Currently the ELSA Settings utility is not supported by the
display driver. To create new monitor timings we included a
command line utility named GLIIMODE.exe in the package. It
can be found in the \Windows\ELSAUTIL subdirectory.
Start the program with "GLIIMODE /?" for more information.
