- 1. Supported Chipsets and Software
- -------------------------------
- This package provides transparent full support for the 765, and update
- support for the 732, 764, 868, and 968 graphics controllers, as well as
- Asian language support for Japanese, Chinese (Traditional and Simplified),

- -----------------
- On-line hints are provided in English, French, Italian, German, Spanish,
- Chinese (Traditional and Simplified), Japanese, Dutch, Russian and Korean

-
- 3. DCI and DirectDraw Support
- --------------------------
- Windows 3.1x DCI and Windows 95 DirectDraw 2.0 support are automatically
- installed along with the VCP by the Setup program.
-
- 4. Windows 95 QuickColor
- ---------------------
- This release incorporates our QuickColor code, which allows color
- depth to be changed on-the-fly under Windows 95. Since these techniques
- bypass the Win32 API and directly manipulate the GDI, we have taken a
- rather cautious approach to exception handling: if a QuickColor change
- fails, the display will default to 640x480 - a resolution supported
- under all hardware configurations and by all monitors. You will
- then have the option of restoring your original display settings.
-
- 5. Windows 95 Driver Compatibility
- -------------------------------
- The VCP has been tested and works transparently with Windows 95 drivers
- from both the chip vendor and Microsoft, including the original drivers
- shipped with Windows 95 as well as Microsoft's various updates included
- with DirectX 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0B.
-
- 6. Windows NT 3.5 and 4.0
- ----------------------
- Drivers for Windows NT 4.0 are provided in this package. Drivers for
- Windows NT 3.5 and 3.51 are available, but are not included in this
- package.
