.c.Introduction


This manual describes the operation and installation of the
software drivers and utility programs supplied on the Display
Driver Diskettes that are shipped with your VGA adapter.

Your VGA adapter is based on the Chips and Technologies 655XX VGA
Flat Panel/CRT controller and is fully IBM VGA compatible.  In
addition, the controller offers a large set of extended
functionalities and higher resolutions.  If you only intend to
use your VGA adapter in standard VGA modes, you do not need to
install any of these drivers.  Since your VGA Adapter is fully
compatible, it does not require any special drivers to operate in
standard modes.

The purpose of the enclosed software drivers is to take advantage
of the extended features of the 655XX VGA controller.  These
capabilities include:

n  Resolutions up to 1024x768 in graphics modes with 16 colors
n  Resolutions up to 800x600 in graphics modes with 256 colors
n  132 column text mode in 16 colors

Your software drivers and utilities support the following
software applications and environments:

n  Windows Version 3.0 & 3.1
n  AutoCAD & AutoCAD/386 Release 10 & 11
n  CADKEY Version 3.51
n  CADVANCE Version 3.50
n  Framework III & IV
n  GEM Version 3.0
n  Generic CADD Level 3 Version 1.1
n  Lotus 1-2-3 Version 2.0
n  Lotus Symphony Version 1.0 & 1.1
n  Ventura Publisher Version 2.0
n  VersaCAD Design & VersaCAD 386 Version 5.4
n  Word Version 5.0 & 5.5
n  WordPerfect Version 5.0 & 5.1
n  WordStar Version 4.0 & 5.0
n  X Window (SCO Open DeskTop) Version 1.0


The Windows drivers included in this package have several special
features, which are described in the Windows section of this
manual:

n  Multimedia Extensions
n  Big Cursor Support
n  Panning Drivers


Hardware Configuration

Some of the high-resolution drivers provided in this package will
work only in certain system configurations.  If a driver does not
display correctly, try the following:

1. Change the display controller to CRT-only mode, rather than
   flat panel or simultaneous display mode.  Some high-resolution
   drivers will display correctly only in CRT mode.

2. Run the MODETEST utility described later in this manual.  This
   will show all modes supported by your system.  If the mode
   used by the driver is not displayed correctly by the MODETEST
   utility, it may indicate that it needs a different monitor or
   more video memory than you have in your system.

3. If a high-resolution mode is not supported on your system, try
   using a lower-resolution mode.  For example, 1024x768 mode
   will not work on some systems, but 800x600 mode is supported
   on most.

4. The 65510 Flat Panel VGA Controller supports only those
   drivers that can display on a 640x480 panel.  See the
   following section Driver Resolutions and Filenames for a list
   of the drivers that can be used on the 65510.

.c.Before you begin

Before you begin the driver and utility software installation,
you should make backup copies of the Display Driver Diskettes.
Store the original disks in a safe place.

Make sure you know the version of the application for which you
are installing drivers. Your Display Driver Diskettes contain
drivers for several versions of certain applications. For your
driver to operate properly, you must install the driver for your
version of the application program.

Last minute changes to the drivers and utilities are documented
in Read-Me files in respective directories on your Display Driver
Diskettes. Before you install a particular driver, check to see
whether there is a Read-Me file for the driver. You can inspect
the file by bringing it into your word processor/editor, or by
typing the command:

      TYPE README.TXT <ENTER>
.c.Windows

Windows with Multimedia 3.0 and Windows 3.1.
Panning Drivers

Special panning drivers are provided to allow high-resolution
modes to be displayed on a 640x480 flat panel or CRT.  These
drivers will show a 640x480 section of a larger screen, and will
automatically pan or scroll the screen horizontally and
vertically when the mouse reaches the edge of the display.


.c.AutoCAD


These drivers are designed to work with Autodesk AutoCAD and
AutoCAD/386 Release 10 and 11, and corresponding versions of
AutoShade.  They conform to the Autodesk Device Interface (ADI)
for Rendering drivers and Display drivers.  These display list
drivers accelerate redraw, pan, and zoom functions.


Driver installation

To install the drivers, follow these instructions:

Step 1:   Place the Display Driver Diskette #1 in drive A.  Type
       A:<ENTER> to make this the default drive.  Type SETUP
       <ENTER> to run the SETUP program.  Press any key to get to
       the applications list.  Using the arrow keys, select
       AutoCAD Fast Display List and press <ENTER>.  This will
       display a list of supported driver resolutions.  Using the
       arrow keys and the <ENTER> key, select the resolutions
       that are appropriate for your monitor.  When all of the
       desired resolutions have been selected, press <END> to
       begin the installation.  At this point you will be asked
       for a drive and directory to copy the driver files.  Enter
       the drive and directory that contains the installed
       AutoCAD.  You may be asked to change display driver
       diskettes, and if the destination directory does not exist
       you will be asked for confirmation.  When the installation
       is complete, press any key to continue.  Press <ESC>
       followed by Y to exit to DOS.

Step 2:   Go to the autocad directory where the new drivers were
       installed and run the driver installation program by
       typing DLDSETUP <ENTER>.  This program will configure your
       new fast display driver and create a batch file called
       FASTACAD.BAT.

Step 3:   Configure the colors for AutoCAD by using one of the
       following:       COLOR16 <ENTER> if 16-color mode is used,
       COLOR256 <ENTER> if 256-color mode is used.
       Start by pressing A to select the standard AutoCAD ADI
       colors.  Press S to save these colors in DLDCOLOR.DAT.
       For more information about these color utilities, see
       Changing Colors later in this section.
Step 4:   Prior to starting an AutoCAD or AutoShade session, the
       display driver must be installed in the computer memory.
       To do so, execute the batch file created by typing
       FASTACAD <ENTER>.  To remove the display driver from
       memory when you are finished using AutoCAD, you may use
       DLDVGA -U <ENTER>.


Configuring AutoCAD

The first time you use AutoCAD with the ADI driver, you need to
configure AutoCAD for an ADI display.  Select CONFIGURE AUTOCAD
from the AutoCAD main menu.  After you see the current
configuration (if any) select CONFIGURE VIDEO DISPLAY.  Select
ADI as your new driver (installed at interrupt 7A hex).  Save the
new configuration and return to the main menu.


Configuring AutoShade

The first time you use AutoShade with an ADI driver, you need to
configure AutoShade for an ADI display.  Before you run the
AutoShade program, remove the file SHADE.CFG (use the DOS DELETE
command if needed).  Then run the AutoShade program.  The program
will ask for a display and rendering driver.  Select ADI for both
drivers and indicate that you have a dual display system.  When
you exit the AutoShade program, a new SHADE.CFG will be created.


Changing Colors

To change the colors that AutoCAD uses for drawing, background,
menus and text, use the utility COLOR16 (16-color modes) or
COLOR256 (256-color modes).  When running these utilities, use
the ? key at any time to get context-sensitive help messages
explaining how to use the program.

For example, to change the background color used by AutoCAD in
16-color mode, run the utility COLOR16.  Press O for object.  Use
the left and right arrows to move through the different objects
(shown at the top of the screen) until Graphics Area Background
appears.  Press <ENTER> to select this object.  The current color
will be shown at the bottom of the screen.  Use the left and
right arrows to move to a new color and press <ENTER> to select
this color.

When you are done changing objects, press <ESC> to exit to the
main menu.  Press S to save these colors in the file
DLDCOLOR.DAT.  Then press E to exit.

Step 5:   At the Main Lotus Installation Menu, select SAVE
       CHANGES.

Step 6:   At this point the Installation Menu will prompt you for
       the name of your new Lotus configuration file.  The Lotus
       system will prompt you with the default value -- 123.SET.
       You do not have to use this name, however.  You might want
       to use a filename that indicates the resolution of the
       driver it contains.  For example, if you installed the 132
       column by 25 line driver, you could name this driver
       132X25.SET.  Or if you installed the 132 by 50 driver, you
       might want to call the file 132X50.SET.

Step 7:   The installation of your Lotus 1-2-3 driver is now
       complete.  You will need to exit the Lotus installation
       program at this point.  At the main Lotus Installation
       Menu, select EXIT.


Note:  If you use a different name of the driver set than
       123.SET, you have to remember to place the filename of
       your driver set on the command line when you start Lotus
       1-2-3.  For example, if you named your driver set
       132X25.SET, give the following command to start Lotus 1-2-
       3:

       123  132X25.SET <ENTER>
