Introduction
============

This guide contains the information you need to install our
Windows NT drivers and tools for your Hercules product.



If You're Updating From An Earlier Release
==========================================

If you already have an earlier version of our Power Drive<tm>
Windows NT driver installed, you should run the UnInstall
program located in the Hercules PowerTools program group
before continuing.  Doing this removes the previous release
of software from your hard drive, as well as all old
references to the drivers and utilities in your configuration
files.  The UnInstall program will also change your display
driver back to the standard VGA driver.  After running the
UnInstall program, restart your computer.  You will be asked
for the first diskette of the new Hercules software.  Windows
NT will install the new driver.  When asked to restart the
computer, select "No".  You will now be ready to install this
new software for the Windows NT desktop.



Running the SETUP Program
=========================

If you received this software release on diskettes, you'll find the
SETUP.EXE program on Disk 1 of our Windows NT Driver and Utilities
diskettes -- the very same diskette that contains this README.TXT
file.  If you've downloaded our software from one of our online
services, you'll find the SETUP.EXE in the archive -- it will be in
the same directory as is this README.TXT file.

To install the driver and utilities, just run our SETUP.EXE program.
If you run it from the task bar, make sure you type the entire path to
the directory that contains SETUP.EXE.  Otherwise, you might
accidentally launch somebody else's setup program.

SETUP.EXE can install the Power Drive driver, Hercules Entertainment 
Center<tm> utilities, or both.  To automatically install everything, 
choose the "Typical" option when using Setup's "wizard" installation 
interface.  There's nothing more to do!



What's New In This Release
==========================

1. Wallpaper refresh problem in 8bpp modes has been corrected.
2. General stability improvements added.


Known Limitations
=================

1. If you experienced random miscolored pixels or lockups with any previous 
   version of this driver, delete the files NTV3D.INF and NTV3D.PNF from the 
   \WINNT\INF directory before installing this driver release. If you have
   already installed this release, delete the above two files and reinstall 
   this version to correct the problem.



Hercules is on an aggressive schedule to provide solutions to known
limitations whenever possible.  If you encounter a problem, please
contact us to ensure that you are using the latest software.
