****** Release s5.19 ********
  SBPCI.VXD    ver 4.06.1154 rev 1709 
  SBPCI9X.DRV  ver 4.06.1154 rev 617
  APINIT.COM   ver 5.12
  SBPCINT4.DLL ver 4.10.27 rev 989 
  SBPCINT4.SYS ver 4.10.27 rev 1362 

SBSETUP.EXE
- error codes returned by sbsetup.exe:
  EXIT_OK			100
  EXIT_INSTALL_FAILED		101
  EXIT_REMOVE_FAILED		102

** SETUP.EXE **
  Setup Application

  Command Line Flags:
   Setup expects all command line flags to be of the form "-x"**, 
   where x is an appropriate 1-character flag that will  be passed on to sbsetup.  
   The only exception is the "-gxx" flag which is used to specify a language.  
   In the case, the xx stand for a 2-character code which represents a supported language.  
   This flag is not passed on to sbsetup, but instead tells setup which language to install.

  ** NOTE: Although setup expects flags in the form "-x", sbsetup expects flags in the form "x" without the dash.

  Command Line Errors:
  1) Flags are NOT case sensative.
  2) Flags can be entered in any order.
  3) Flags not of the form "-x" will cause setup to fail.  
     Each unique flag must be preceded by a dash.  
     Whitespace is ignored (although windows requires a space 
     after the executable string and arguments).
  4) "-gxx" flags specifying an unsupported language will cause setup to fail.
  5) Running Setup without sbsetup in the correct default path will cause failure.
  6) Any command line error will cause setup to fail without ever even attempting to execute sbsetup.

  Return Codes:
  Setup has 3 returnable exit codes unique from sbsetup.
  - 510 EXIT_CMDLINE_ERROR (reason #3 above)
  - 511 EXIT_UNSUPPORTED_LANGUAGE (reason #4 above)
  - 512 EXIT_SBSETUP_NOT_FOUND (reason #5 above)
  - SBSetup error codes are returned through Setup if none of the above are caused.

    its joystick "fastmode" bit turned on. This bit is needed to optimize
    the joystick SW patch performance, but is not required.
