-
-
- Important notes
- ----------------
-
- 1. ASUS AGP-V3400TNT consumes approximately 9 Watt electrical power
- so that your motherboard must be able to provide enough electrical
- current in 3.3V power to maintain its normal operation.
-
- 2. AGP-V3400TNT is recommended to use with Intel 440LX and 440BX
- chipset for best compatibility.
-
- 3. When using dual view TV out, overlay YUV surface (ex. MPEG player)
- will be showed on the TV, not on the monitor.

-
- 5. Dual view is not supported under DOS.
-
- 6. HW cursor appears only on the monitor, not on the TV when dual view
- is enabled.
-
-
- Limitation in this release
- ---------------------------
-
- 1. When dual view is enabled and run 3D games, there could be some
- flicker on the TV screen. It can be fixed by checking "Turn off
- V-Sync waiting" option in the advanced page of the display property
- page. (But if you are playing VCD with dual view mode, please uncheck
- this option.)
-

-
- Trouble Shootings
- ------------------
- 1. After installing the driver, Windows 95/98 doesn't prompt me for restarting
- and the driver still doesn't work after I reboot it by myself.
-
- You may have installed similar drivers before. Try the following steps
- to install:
-
- (1) Use right button of mouse to click on "My Computer" icon on desktop.
- (2) Select "Properties" and "System Properties" box appears
- (3) Click on "Device Manager" tab
- (4) You will see a list of devices on your computer.
- (5) If "Display adapters" appears in the list, click it.
- If "Display adapters" doesn't appear, jump to step 9 and continue.
-
- (6) The name of your card will be listed in the box. Double click it.
- (7) The properties box of your card appears. Select "Driver" tab.
- (8) Click "Change Driver.." and follow the installation steps.
-
- (9) Click "Other devices" you will see your card is listed.
- (10) Click on the name of card, the properties box appears.
- Select "Driver" tab.
- (11) Click "Change Driver.." and follow the installation steps.
-
- 2. After installation and restarting, Windows 95/98 informs me that display
- setting is still incorrect. What can I do?
-
- There may be conflict between previous and current display drivers.
- This is caused by not complete removal of previous display driver. Try
- the following steps to remove it:
-
- (1) Use right button of mouse to click on "My Computer" icon on desktop.
- (2) Select "Properties" and "System Properties" box appears
- (3) Click on "Device Manager" tab
- (4) You will see a list of devices on your computer.
- (5) Open "Display adapters" in the list (double click it).
- (6) You will find two (or more) conflicted adapters listed here.
- (7) Remove all previous adapters by selecting them and press "Remove"
- (8) Close Device Manager and restart Windows 95.
- (9) Now display driver will work correctly.
-
- 3. ASUS Live3400 reports "Your display card is not ASUS V3400TNT/TV." when
- you do use ASUS V3400TNT/TV. What can I do?
-
- There could be wrong circuit implemented in DDC circuit of your monitor.
- (For example, it connects DDC circuit to ground.) The inappropriate DDC
- circuit will make video-in/out functions working abnormally. You can try
- one of the following steps to solve it:
-
- (1) Try to contact your monitor vendor for a solution.
- (2) Use a NON-DDC cable instead of original monitor cable.
- (NON-DDC cable is a cable without pin 12 and 15.)
-
- 4. My TV out or TV adjustment options in property page does not work.
-
- This is a similar problem as previous one.
