2       Installation instructions

2.1     Preparation

        Note: If there were already other graphics boards
              installed, their referring "oemx.inf" and
              "oemx.pnf" files (where "x" read as numbers) in
              the INF subdirectory of your system should be
              deleted. This is to ensure that the Plug&Play
              recognition of Windows 2000 is working properly.

        Copy all listed driver files to a formatted disk (or a
        temporary directory). Uninstall all display adapter devices
        under CONTROL PANEL/SYSTEM/HARDWARE/DEVICE MANAGER/DISPLAY
        ADAPTERS. Remove your floppy disk and reboot your system.

2.2     Installation

        Windows 2000 uses Plug&Play functions to recognize your
        display adapter. Here is how (devices may be recognized
        in a different order):

        1. Device recognized. The "Found New Hardware Wizard"
           will guide you. 
           - Click "Next" - choose option 
            "Display a list of the known drivers ..."
           - click "Next" 
           - choose "Display Adapters" 
           - click "Next" 
           - click "Have Disk..." and choose the directory from (2.1) 
           - click "Ok" 
           - choose entry "ELSA AG GLoria L (GLint) 
           - click "Next" twice, then "Yes". Now the
             driver is going to be installed. 
           - Click "Finish.
           - Do not restart the computer yet.

        2. Coprocessor device recognized as "ELSA AG GLoria L
           (Delta). Click "Yes" to continue the installation.
           
        3. The installation of the display driver is finished now.
           Remove your floppy disk and reboot your system now.

        Note: Depending on your monitor Plug&Play will recognize
              and install a monitor device.

2.3     Verification

        Open CONTROL PANEL/DISPLAY/SETTINGS. Verify you can read
        "<Monitor Name> on ELSA AG GLoria-L (GLint)".
        You should now be able to use a resolution higher than
        800x600.

2.4     Adjust Refresh Frequencies

        Click "Advanced" Button on Display Property Page. Go to
        Monitor Property Page and use the DropDown-List "Refresh
        Frequency".

3       Known Bugs

        - Clipping problems when moving 2D windows over OpenGL
          viewport
        - No hardware support for DirectDraw
        - Limitation: no tools included
        - Limitation: no uninstall function
        - After toggling a DOS-BOX from fullscreen mode to window 
          mode a "busy" mouse pointer may appear on the desktop.
          Change the resolution or disable pointer shadow 
          to make it disappear. 
        - The DEVICE MANAGER may mark the "S3 ViRGE" device with an
          exclamation mark, this is due to a limitation of Windows
          2000. Anyway your Display Adapter is working properly.
