To get QPV/386 working for your graphics card, follow these steps:
1. Run the setup utility by typing 'SETUP'. Select your graphics card from
the list that is displayed.
2. You should then browse through the configuration file QPV.CFG which
has been created/modified by the setup utility. Read the comments and
check if everything looks okay. (The configuration file is located in
C:\QPV if you run QPV/386 from a non-writeable media, for example from
a CD-ROM.)
3. If in doubt, try to select "VESA" in the setup utility. Most modern
graphics cards are VESA compatible.
4. Run QPV/386 by typing 'QPV'. Try viewing images using different
video modes. If everything works fine, sit back and relax.
Some Hints:
- Some questions about configuring QPV/386 are discussed in the FAQ.DOC
file. Please read it if you have problems configuring QPV/386.
- If you can't get a video driver to work, try to select VESA.
If your VGA BIOS hasn't embedded VESA compatibility, you have to install
a VESA BIOS extension (VBE) before starting QPV/386. Most graphics cards
come with a VESA VBE/TSR (please refer to your card's manual).
Please read the file FAQ.DOC for more information about VESA.
- Experienced programmers can write their own video drivers. Please read
the file DRVSRC\DRV.DOC for more information.
