; Mode/Configuration File Installation
; ====================================
;
; To install a mode/refresh configuration file with the drivers:
;
; 1) Remove the leading ";" from the "%S3ConfigFile%" line in the
;    [S3Inc.ConfigFile] section below.  This will allow the configuration
;    file to be copied from the driver diskette to the target system.
; 2) Remove the leading ";" in the "HKR..." line in the [S3Inc_Configuration]
;    section below.  This will place the configuration file name in the
;    Registry.
; 3) Set S3ConfigFile to the mode/refresh filename in the [Strings] section
;    at the bottom of this file.

How To Update Drivers Manually

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).

• 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.
