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 have to 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.

        Windows 2000 uses Plug&Play functions to recognize your
        display adapter. Here is how:

        1. PCI device recognized. The "Found New Hardware Wizards"
           will guide you.
           - click "Next" - choose option
           "Display a list of the known drivers ..."
           - click "Next"
           - choose "Display Adapters"
           - click "Next"
           - click "Have Disk..."
           - choose the directory from (2.1)
           - click "Ok"
           - choose entry "ELSA AG GLoria Synergy"
           - click "Next"
           - click "Next"
           - click "Yes".
           Now the driver is  going to be installed.
           - click "Finish.

        2. PCI device recognized as "ELSA AG GLoria Synergy.
           - Click "Yes" to continue the installation.

        4. The installtion of the display driver is finished now.
           Remove your floppy disk and reboot your system now.

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

2.3     Verification

        Open CONTROL PANEL/DISPLAY/SETTINGS. Verify if you can read
        "Plug and Play Monitor on ELSA AG GLoria Synergy".
        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".
