- SpeedSTAR Windows 3.1 Video Driver Installation Instructions
-
- This driver disk is designed to allow you to select or change the
- video driver for Windows 3.1 using Windows Setup. Setup can be
- executed from within Windows, or from DOS. Note that these driver
- files are in Microsoft compressed format and can only be accessed and
- executed by installing through Windows Setup. Simply copying the files
- into your \Windows\System subdirectory WILL NOT work and may corrupt
- your Windows installation. Installing the drivers correctly is,
- however, a simple process. It is accomplished by following these
- instructions:
-
-
- Installation from floppy disk
-
- 1) Insert your Driver Disk in the appropriate floppy drive.
-
- 2) From your Windows directory, type SETUP and select DISPLAY to
- change the video driver. Or, with Windows running, select Setup from
- the Program Manager Main group. Refer to your Microsoft Windows User's
- Guide for assistance in running Setup from inside Windows.
-
- 3) Select "Other disk..." to direct the program to the floppy disk
- holding the new drivers. Note that after the drivers are installed,
- you will not have to select "Other disk..." again should you decide to
- change resolutions. Look for the SpeedSTAR drivers in the Display
- selection menu to select the display resolution you want.
-
- 4) When asked where the drivers will be found, state the following:
-
- A:\
-
- Following instructions 6-7 below.
-
-
- Installation from Hard Disk
-
- 1) Having the drivers loaded on the hard disk will make it easier and
- faster to change resolutions in the future. Make a subdirectory to
- hold the driver files.
-
- example: C:>md \sswin31
-
- and switch to that subdirectory (C:>cd \sswin31)
-
- 2) Insert the drivers disk into the appropriate drive and type the
- following command:
-
- COPY A:\*.*
-
- 3) From your Windows directory, type SETUP and select DISPLAY to
- change the video driver. Or, with Windows running, select Setup from
- the Program Manager Main group. Refer to your Microsoft Windows User's
- Guide for assistance in running Setup from inside Windows.
-
- 4) Select "Other disk..." to direct the program to the subdirectory
- holding the new drivers. Note that once the drivers are installed, you
- should not have to select "Other" again should you decide to change
- resolutions. Look for the SpeedSTAR drivers in the Display
- selection menu to select the display resolution you want.
-
- 5) When asked where the drivers will be found, state the following
- (deleting what the program has displayed in the input window):
-
- [drive:]\[directory]
-
- e.g.: C:>\sswin31
-
- 6) A standard Windows selection menu will appear with additional video
- drivers from which to select.
-
- 7) Proceed normally through the remainder of the process. Check
- Microsoft Windows installation procedures if necessary.
