Pivot(R) Software Manual Contents 

In this booklet you will find instructions to assist you in installing 
and using Pivot(R) Software.  This Documentation covers:
- Windows(R) 9x, Me, NT, 2000

Pivot(R) software adds functionality to your monitor, but is not required 
for you to use your display in traditional Landscape orientation.  

If you experience any difficulty, you can always remove the Pivot(R) 
Software and revert to the native driver software which came with your 
graphics adapter card or computer.

As new graphics cards and operating systems are introduced, Pivot(R) 
Software is upgraded to provide enhanced compatibility with current 
configurations.  If your system is not supported in this release, please 
contact the manufacturer of your display or graphics adapter, to see if 
an upgrade is available.  Thank you for using Pivot(R) Software.

WINDOWS(R) 9x, Me, NT, 2000
Pivot(R) Plug-In software (Introduction)
Pivot(R) for Windows(R) 9x, Me, NT, 2000 has been configured as a 'Plug-In' software
that works directly with your installed Manufacturer's (native) graphics 
driver to greatly enhance Pivot(R) speed and compatibility.  The Pivot(R) 
Plug-In software no longer 'replaces' your original native landscape 
graphics driver.  Pivot(R) now works directly with your native driver, 
allowing the native Display Properties 'Control Panels' to operate 
normally. 
In landscape mode, Pivot(R) "steps out of the way" to allow your native 
driver to function normally.  When 'Rotate' is selected, Pivot(R) software 
activates to allow portrait viewing.
  
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INFORMATION: First load your NATIVE landscape 
drivers. The native driver MUST be active to allow Pivot(R) software to 
work correctly!

Pivot(R) Installation Instructions, Windows(R) 9x, Me, NT, 2000
1. Quit all other applications
2. Make sure your native drivers are installed before installing 
Pivot(R) software.
3. Insert the Pivot(R) CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive
4. Windows(R) 9x, Me, NT, 2000: select RUN from the START button on the Taskbar
5. Type D:\SETUP.EXE (replace D: with the letter of your CD-ROM if 
necessary)

1.0     Known issues with Pivot(R) Plug-In

the following:
1.  Rotate your screen image to landscape mode and re-launch the 
animation application.
This will usually correct the problem.
**************************************************

2.0 Before you call Technical Support

Remember, Pivot(R) Plug-In software does not replace your manufacturer's 
(native) display drivers.  Instead Pivot(R) works directly with your 
native drivers to add portrait functionality.  Therefore, if a bug 
exists in your native driver, it will still exist when Pivot(R) Plug-In 
software is active.  

If you find a problem that you suspect is graphics display driver 
related, you need to follow a few simple steps to verify and possibly 
correct the situation.
1. Does this problem occur in both landscape and portrait orientation?
2. Does this problem occur at different resolutions, for example 800x600 
vs. 1024x768?
3. Does this problem occur when using different color depths (256 vs. 
High Color)?
4. Does this problem occur when using your native driver without Pivot(R) 
loaded?

a) If the problem happens in both landscape and portrait modes, then 
this may be a native driver issue. Please do the following:
Make sure you have the most current native display drivers. Most 
manufacturers such as Diamond, STB, ATI and others have web sites that 
will allow you to down load current drivers.
