Installing Hercules Graphite Windows 3.1 drivers the first time --------------------------------------------------------------- To install Hercules Graphite Windows 3.1 drivers the first time, you should NOT use Windows' SETUP program first. Instead, you should use Graphite's Install program to copy all the necessary files for you. After the installation, you must run Windows' SETUP program to tell Windows about the Graphite drivers: 1) Go to your Windows directory, and type SETUP. 2) Pick "Display:", then press the Enter key. 3) Pick "Hercules Graphite Card (All Resolutions)" from list, then press the Enter key. 4) Press the Enter key to "Accept the configuration shown above". 5) If Windows presents a screen of currently installed drivers, press the Enter key to "Keep Driver". *** important *** 6) Start Windows. Use the Hercules Picture Windows utility to switch to other screen resolutions or color depths. For more details, please consult the Hercules Graphite Installation Guide. Installing the Windows Drivers with Windows on a Network -------------------------------------------------------- When you are prompted for the Windows directory name during the installation process, make sure you enter the name of the local Windows directory (the one on your own hard disk), as opposed to the network Windows directory. You should also always run Windows' SETUP in your local Windows directory. Updating the Windows drivers from a previous version ---------------------------------------------------- Case 1) If you have a complete Graphite Windows 3.1 drivers diskette. Method 1: You can use the Graphite install program to re-install the drivers. The install program is located in your Graphite operating software directory (e.g. C:\HERCULES) and can be invoked by typing HERCULES if that directory is in your PATH. Method 2: You can use UPWIN.BAT supplied in your Graphite Windows diskette. Log to the drive containing the disk and type: UPWIN [source drive:] [Windows directory] (e.g. UPWIN A: C:\WINDOWS) Case 2) If you have only the driver files (agx.drv, agx64016.drv, agx64024.drv, agx80016.drv, and vddagx.386), you can manually copy the new driver files into the directory containing the old driver files. No matter which case you choose to update the files, you must re-run the Windows SETUP program after updating the drivers. ** End of File **
