2 Installation
To run Setup.exe you can either double click on it in Microsoft Explorer
or choose "Run..." in the "Start" menue of the taskbar.
3.1 Additional Configuration Options
In SETUP.INI:
Under [Setup Options] you find the keys "QuietInstall" and "AutoReboot".
Both keys default to "OFF". If you set "QuietInstall=ON", then Setup.exe
installs the graphics display driver without need for any user input.
For a complete auto-installation you'll need to reboot your machine.
Therefore you can set "AutoReboot=ON".
3.2 integrating setup.exe into other installation routines
Setup.exe accepts a path to an .inf file as a command line parameter.
That path must point to a directory as listed in 1.1.
If the command line is ommitted, the program defaults to "ELSA.INF" in
its directory.
example: Setup.exe c:\Drivers\Graphics\NT40\ELSA.INF
Caution:
If there is more than one driver listed in an .inf file, only the
default (first) one is installed.
There must be only one .inf file in the path given to Setup.exe.
If an error occurs, the program returns an error code from
<Winerror.h>.
If the program is caused to fail, e.g. via user input while
runninng dialog sequences, it will end itself after a short period
of time. The user can either continue installation manually or
run setup.exe again.
4 Hints
If opened, cLose "Display Properties" Dialog before running SETUP.EXE.
Ensure that the display driver directory resides on a hard disk drive.
Version 1.0 only supports Windows NT 4.0 Build 1381 in english and
german language.
Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
