5 Video Controllers

The Integrated Ultra VGA Video Controller

 

VESA Connector

 

The Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) defines a standard

 

video connector, variously known as the VESA feature connector,

 

auxiliary connector, or pass-throughconnector. The integrated video

 

controller supports an output-only VESA feature connector. This connector

 

is integrated directly on the system board, and is connected directly to the

 

pixel data bus and the synchronization signals.

 

To use the VESA feature connector in DOS, or Windows 95, the FCON.EXE

 

utility must be executed. This utility configures the system.

 

 

WARNING

Use of the VESA feature connector will disable the 1 MB video

 

memory upgrade, if this has been installed. Only the standard 1 MB

 

of video memory will be used.
