- Just go to your OS/2 System icon, double click on it, then double
- click on the System Setup icon. Then double click on Selective
- Install. You then get two successive dialogs. I believe on the first
- one you just click on the Install button. On the second you check the
- box next to "Primary Display," reselect SuperVGA, and then select OK a
- couple times. (I could have that reversed.) Then go through the
- diskettes as you are prompted, answer any subsequent questions (about
- which mode you want), and then you're all set.
