-
- This document contains instructions on how to install high resolution
- graphics drivers for Windows 3.0. There are four drivers provided on the
- disk:
-
- 1) Mode 54 800X600 /16 colors
-
- This driver is supported on all versions of the ATI VGAWONDER,
- VGAWONDER+ and VGA EDGE. An analog multisync or 8514 type monitor is
- required.
-
- 2) Mode 55 1024X768 /16 colors
-
- This driver is supported on V4 and V5 versions of the ATI VGAWONDER and
- all versions of the VGAWONDER+. An analog multisync or 8514 type monitor
- and 512K video memory is required.
-
- NOTE! V3 versions of the VGAWONDER cannot support the planar memory
- architecture used by the Mode 55 driver. The version may be determined
- by checking the BIOS message which is displayed on the screen during
- boot or by using the V-INFO utility provided on VGAWONDER disk #1.
-
- 3) Mode 62 640X480 /256 colors

-
-
- The installation procedure takes advantage of an option provided by
- Windows of adding a third party graphics driver during installation. This
- procedure requires an "OEM display driver disk". This disk contains all the
- files needed for setting up Microsoft Windows 3.0. The files are:
-
- o WIN3-54B.DRV - Windows 3.0 800x600 16 colors driver
-
- o WIN3-55B.DRV - Windows 3.0 1024x768 16 colors driver
- (for V4 board and up)
- o WIN3-62B.DRV - Windows 3.0 640x480 256 colors driver
-
- o WIN3-63B.DRV - Windows 3.0 800x600 256 colors driver
-
- o VDDVGA.386 - Virtual display driver for Windows 3.0
- (required when installed on a 386 system)
- o OEMSETUP.INF - Windows 3.0 setup file
-
- o README - This file
-
-
- If you are installing Windows 3.0 for the first time, run SETUP.EXE from
- your Windows 3.0 disk #1. If Windows 3.0 is already installed on your hard
- drive, run SETUP.EXE from the Windows directory. NOTE! Setup option in the
- MAIN screen within Windows cannot be used to install these high resolution
- drivers. You must exit Windows and run SETUP.EXE.
-
- SETUP will display the system information on the screen. Move the
- highlighted bar to Display and press Enter. A list of options appears.
- Select OTHER. Then you will be asked to insert 'the display driver disk
- provided by the hardware manufacturer'. Insert this diskette and select the
- desired resolution.
-
- When installing Windows 3.0 on a 386 machine, there is an additional step
- required. When the screen shows:
-
- Setup is copying file...
- Copying Himem Driver
-
- and the blue horizontal bar reads 94%, SETUP may prompt you for a diskette
- with this message:
-
- Setup needs the following disk
-
- However, there is no description to identify which diskette should be
- inserted. In this situation, insert this OEM Display Driver Disk in a
- drive and type the drive path onto the screen.
-
- for example: A:\
-
- Complete installation of Windows as described in your Windows manual.
