vGut 1.0.4 - by Chris Lundie vGut has only been tested on Windows 95, because Windows NT does not yet support the required RRedline drivers. ** Rendition is not responsible for this utility and will not support it! ** The Verite General Utility (vGut) changes various registry settings for Rendition video drivers, and reports the total & available video memory on your board. Please refer to your driver instructions for more details on what these settings do. All settings should take effect immediately, although you may have to quit and restart your game/video/etc. to see a difference. OpenGL Settings --------------- Some of these settings may not apply to the miniGL. -Per-polygon mipmapping Smooths out objects as they get more distant. This may introduce a performance penalty. In theory, it's supposed to improve performance, though. -Triple buffering May improve performance because it avoids locking into your monitor's refresh rate. However, it uses more video memory and can be a problem for 4 megabyte boards. -Stereo line doubling Improves performance when you use stereo goggles. Bilinear Filter --------------- This setting can affect how video clips are scaled. Normally, you should leave it at "Auto". However, you may want to try "Always On" if video clips look blocky when you enlarge them. Video Memory ------------ When you click "Refresh" vGut will attempt to determine the total and free amounts of video memory on your board. If it doesn't work, it will report "Unknown". (This might happen on V1000 boards.) You must exit all OpenGL applications before the memory check will run. This is because of a nasty conflict between RRedline and OpenGL that can make your computer lock up. vGut will attempt to detect running OpenGL apps and to warn you about this.

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.
