- Trident Linear-Addressing Non-Accelerated Driver UC95 1.0B
- ----------------------------------------------------------
- Beta Windows '95 27 July 1995
-
- This driver supports the following Trident chipsets:
-
- 9400CXi VL
- 9420DGi VL/PCI
- 9440AGi VL
-
- On the above chipsets, the following resolutions and color depths
- are supported:
-
- 640x480x256
- 800x600x256
- 1024x768x256
- 640x480x64K
- 800x600x64K
- 640x480x16.7M
-
- Additionally, the driver is known to work with the 8900C, 8900CL, and 8900D,
- and 9000i, though the resolution and color depth attainable will
- depend on the DAC and amount of video memory used on your video card. Those
- with 8-bit DAC's (which have a limit of 256 colors) should use the "Trident
- SuperVGA" driver included with the Microsoft distribution of Windows 95.
-
- To install:
- Go to the Windows '95 Control Panel select "Display". Choose the
- "Settings" page and click on the "Change Display Type" button to change the
- adapter type. Click on "Change" next to "Adapter Type", and a "Select Device"
- page will appear. Click on "Show all devices" and choose "Standard display
- type" under "Manufacturers" list and choose "Standard Display Adapter (VGA)"
- under "Models". Click on "OK" and perform a shutdown to restart the computer.
- Once Windows '95 is restarted, go back into Control Panel and click on
- "Display". Click on the "Settings" page and click on "Change Display Type".
- Click on "Change" next to Adapter Type. On the "Select Device" page, click
- on "Have Disk" button. Insert the diskette with the Trident Windows '95
- drivers or specify where the drivers are located, then click the "OK" button.
- If the model name that now appears matches the device you have, click on "OK"
- to proceed. Otherwise click "Show All Devices" to list all the Trident non-
- accelerated devices available. Pick the device that matches the chip and
- configuration you have, then click "OK". After the appropriate files are
- copied, close the "Change Display Type" window so that you can select the
- "Color Palette" and "Desktop Area" that you want. Restart your computer to
