433 DX  (259-5150)             MS-DOS Drivers           Faxback Doc. # 1939

The MS-DOS SVGA Accelerator drivers diskette contains drivers for the
following popular MS-DOS-based applications: AutoCAD, AutoShade,
Cadvance, Generic CADD, Lotus 1-2-3, Lotus Symphony, P-CAD, VersaCAD,
Word, and WordPerfect.

Notes about MS-DOS Application Drivers:

* Do not write protect MS-DOS SVGA diskette.
* Install your software applications before you run INSTALL to install
  the drivers.
* Install the drivers according to the instructions in the manual and
  any applicable README.TXT files on the diskette. Specify the full
  pathname when prompted for the driver. Note that many applications
  require the driver to be in the same directory as the application.
* Install software for VGA video if possible. This enables your
  software to run with the SVGA circuitry in its default configuration.
* If your software does not provide a VGA option and you are using a
  color monitor, try installing the software for color, if available.
  This usually works with the SVGA circuitry's default mode on color
  monitors.
* If your software supports a video standard other than VGA, configure
  the software for the best standard. Run VGAMODE.EXE and set the mode
  to match the program.
* If the software does not display the video properly, use VGAMODE.EXE
  to set the SVGA circuitry to a standard that supports the software in
  CGA or Hercules mode.
* Hercules-compatible software and some CGA-compatible games require
  that the video be set to the appropriate standard.
* Software that requires a specific video mapping might need the
  VGAMODE utility to set the video to color or monochrome VGA mode. The
  default mapping is color for a color monitor and monochrome for a
  monochrome monitor.
* To get the sharpest display, select the highest resolution mode
  supported by the application when you configure your software.
* In a normal installation, the driver is decompressed and copied to
  the directory that you specify. The directory is created if it does
  not already exist. This process is verified by the following screen
  messages:

  Installing, Reading, Verifying, Writing, Decompressing.

* Execute the installation program from a diskette drive or a network
  directory. This is your source drive. You cannot install to the
  source drive.
