Installation Notes

1.During the installation of this driver, DISPLAY.LOG and DSPINSTL.LOG files are created in \OS2\INSTALL directory. These files identify the OS/2 system files that were updated, and indicate whether the installation was successful. The DISPLAY.LOG file also contains a string that identifies the version of driver that was installed. This information may be important when reporting an installation problem.

2.During installation, DSPINSTL will invoke the SVGA Configu- ration program SVGA.EXE to determine the hardware configu- ration, and create the file \OS2\INSTALL\SVGADATA.PMI. If this file is not created, the adapter will not be supported.

When this step is done, the display will be blanked, and you may see a series of flashes on the display and/or what appears to be a “corrupted” display. This is normal, as the configura- tion process is doing Video BIOS mode sets to determine which screen resolutions BIOS supports. This configuration information is then used to provide the System-Settings Resolution and Refresh selections.
