Subject:
800 X 600 Super VGA Driver for the Equity 386SX Plus and Microsoft
Windows 3.0
Date: 12/5/90
Page(s): 1 of 1
The super VGA (SVGA) driver for Microsoft Windows 3.0 for the Equity 386SX Plus is
now available for downloading from the Epson Product Support Bulletin Board
System (BBS). Please refer to PSB S-0067B for an overview on using the BBS. Also
note the new telephone numbers for the BBS: (800) 234-1445 extension 8777 and
(213) 782-4531.
The file name is WIN30C&T.EXE, located in the DRIVERS file library. It is a self-
extracting file and must be downloaded with a binary protocol, such as XMODEM.
Once the file has been downloaded, use the following steps to make it operational:
Copy the file to the hard disk subdirectory that contains the current .DRV files
1)
(typically C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM).
Execute the file; this will produce four files named VDDVGA.386, VGAP45X.GR3,
2)
SETUP.INF and W3L600.DRV.
Copy the file W3L600.DRV to VGA.DRV (you may want to rename the original
3)
VGA.DRV file so it doesn't get overwritten).
Log into the C:\WINDOWS subdirectory and run Windows SETUP. From the
4)
System information screen select Display and press ENTER. From the list of
available drivers, choose "800x600x16 for CHIPS Super VGA 82C452" and press
ENTER. Then follow the screen instructions to save your choices and exit.
Re-boot the computer and start Windows. You should now be using the Super
5)
VGA resolution.
NOTE:
You must be using a multi-frequency, auto-synching analog monitor (such
as the NEC MultSync 3D). Also, you may experience memory conflicts
with advanced memory management utilities, such as Quarterdeck's
QEMM386 version 5.11. If this occurs, you will need to experiment to
determine which portions of memory need to be excluded from use by
the memory manager.
