- 1.0 Introduction
-
- The BBS Utility package provides the following functions:
-
- - It contains an option for configuring the mach64 hardware
- - It contains an option for testing the VGA, VESA and Accelerator
- portion of the card
- - It contains an option to install the ATI mach64 utilities
-
- It is important to note that the BBS Utility package does not support
- mach64 driver installation. For this reason we would recommend
- retaining your existing mach64 diskettes for driver installation or
- downloading the appropriate drivers from the ATI BBS, CompuServe forum
- or FTP site.
