		       FlashPoint NT Developer Tools
===========================================================================
This file contains information about the FlashPoint VGA NT Developer
Tools.

All DLLs and drivers are compatible with NT 3.51 and NT 4.0.

===========================================================================
				Installation

1)  Use the Control Panel Display applet to choose the Microsoft
    supplied Tseng Labs W32 display driver.  You must select a color
    resolution of 32768 or greater for displaying video.  FlashPoint Lite
    and FlashPoint MV users can select 256 color drivers.  

    FlashPoint 128 users will need to install the display driver from the 
    128 Display Drivers disk.  This is available in the download section 
    of the Integral Web site, http://www.integraltech.com.  Run the 
    Control Panel Display applet.  Select the settings tab and click on 
    "Display Type".   Click on "Change" in adapter type and then click
    "Have Disk".  Browse to the appropriate WINNT35 or WINNT40 directory of 
    the 128 Display Drivers disk and click "Open".  Select "Integral 
    Technologies FlashPoint 128" and click "OK".  You will need to choose a 
    display mode of 32,000 or more colors for video capture.

2)  Developers using offscreen capture should use the
    replacement display driver DLL from \FlashPT\NT\DISPDRV3 or
    \FlashPT\NT\DISPDRV4 for NT 3.51 or NT 4.0 respectively.  Boot
    to VGA mode, then copy W32.DLL into the SYSTEM32 directory and reboot
    into W32 display mode.

3)  You will need to use the Control Panel 'Devices' applet to set
    the NT driver 'FlashPT' to 'Auto' start rather than 'Manual' if
    a non-admin account is used to run FlashPoint applications.

4)  If you need to update the FlashPoint Video drivers, you should stop
    the FlashPT driver before you install the new software.  Use the
    Control Panel Devices to stop the driver or type 'net stop FlashPT'
    from the command prompt.  In NT 3.51, you can use the Control Panel 
    Drivers applet to install the drivers, NT 4.0 users should use the
    Control Panel Multimedia applet.  Choose 'Add' then 'Unlisted' and 
    indicate the 'NT' directory from the FlashPoint NT installation 
    directory.  You can also use the Drivers applet to remove any previous 
    FlashPoint Video driver.  This will insure a clean installation.

				Components

Tseng W32 NT 3.5 Display Drivers
--------------------------------
These are no longer supplied with the DK.  NT users must have NT 3.51
or greater.  The Microsoft supplied Tseng W32 display driver should
be selected.

You must be running a 64K or 16 million color display driver in order
to display a video window.  Please note the mode that Tseng calls
64K color is actually 32K (5,5,5).  FlashPoint Lite and FlashPoint
MV users can display grayscale video on 256 color screens.

FlashPoint Kernel Mode Driver
-----------------------------
NT requires a kernel mode driver be used to access hardware.  FLASHPT.SYS
is the kernel mode driver that performs all I/O and memory transfers for
FlashPoint.

FlashPoint 32 Bit DLL
---------------------
FPV32.DLL provides the developer an API for accessing FlashPoint.  The
parameters, functionality, and return values are identical to those
described in the FlashPoint Developer Toolkit and documentation.  All
ints are now explicitly short ints to maximize compatibility.  FPVPUB.H
and FPVTYPES.H have been updated for NT.  FPVJPG32.DLL works with
FPV32.DLL to provide JPEG load/save.

FlashPoint Grab Application
---------------------------
The FlashPoint Grab application and source are provided as an example
of programming FlashPoint under NT.  The application has been changed
only slightly to fix Win32 compatibility problems.

FlashPoint Installable Device Driver
------------------------------------
FPVIDDNT.DLL is an installable device driver that is used to update
the registry when the FlashPoint drivers are installed or removed.

FlashPoint Thunking DLL
-----------------------
FPV.DLL is a thunking DLL which will allow most 16 bit software to work
with the FlashPoint.  Some 16 bit applications may not work under NT or
may not work with our thunking DLL.

===========================================================================
			Limitations and Gotchas

IRQ functions are not yet supported.

The FlashPoint NT drivers have only been tested under NT 3.51 and NT 4.0.

Note all FPV_ routines return SHORTs.  Beware of sign extension when
assigning the return value to a 32 bit integer.

If a FlashPoint application is to be run at less than admin level, an
admin account must be used to set the FlashPT driver to auto start using
the Control Panel Devices applet.  Auto means the driver will be started
each time NT starts, so you must shut down and restart the system after
making the change.  Note you must then manually stop the driver before
doing a software update or the old driver will not be replaced.
