======================================================================= Stealth 3D 3000 README.TXT ======================================================================= Release Notes ------------- This is v1.03 of the Stealth 3D Windows v3.1 Driver disk. Windows Installation Notes -------------------------- Use the INSTALL program to install the Windows 3.1 drivers from DOS or from the Windows Program Manager. * Suggestion: If you are upgrading from a previous version of the Diamond InControl Tools, you should install from DOS, not from within Windows. This will bypass errors regarding any files that may be in use and cause the installation to fail. * Suggestion: When running the Windows install use MS VGA to eliminate any OEM files that could create a conflict. * When running a windows install, if the install says "file in use, abort/continue" and the file in question is a font (*.FON) file, continue the install. * If strange errors occur and text is missing from dialogs, check for .VBX files in your \WINDOWS directory. .VBX files should only reside in the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM sub-directory. Once the driver launches Windows, you will be placed in 640x480 256-color mode and prompted to select your monitor type. Select the brand monitor you have, compatible type, or use the Custom Monitor Timings to create your own configuration and custom screen centering. * Only resolutions that have been selected as supported in the Display module will be available in the Desktop choices. If your monitor can display a resolution provided by the card, go to Display and select a monitor that offers that mode and refresh, or select Custom Monitor Timings and Add the mode. * To enable video playback acceleration, please install Microsoft Video for Windows 1.1e. This can be downloaded from the Microsoft's BBS or Diamond Multimedia Systems BBS and World Wide Web site stated in the Contacting Diamond section below.
