Installing from Diskette
To install the Vision864/964/868/968/Trio32/64/64V+/64V2 device driver from dis-
kette, do the following:
1. If system is not in VGA mode, select VGA mode.
2. Insert the Vision864/964/868/968/Trio32/64/64V+/64V2 diskette into drive A
(or any other diskette drive).
NOTE: "S3 DRV1" must be the volume label of this diskette. To verify the
label, use "Label A:".
3. Open an OS/2 full-screen or OS/2 window session.
4. At the OS/2 command prompt, type the following command to copy all neces-
sary files to the OS/2 drive:
A:SETUP (where A: is the diskette drive)
Then press .
Setup will then identify your chipset. When prompted to do so, press to
continue. Due to the limitations with a single pass installation, a dialog box may
come up during installation with the message, "The installed adapter does not
support the selected display driver. Do you wish to continue?". Please continue
the installation by selecting the Yes button.
5. When the Monitor Configuration/Selection Utility window appears, the "Install
Using Defaults for Monitor Type" choice is preselected. Select OK. Do not
select "Install Using Display Adapter Utility Program" since this method of set-
ting refresh rates is not supported anymore.
NOTE: DSPINSTL determines the hardware configuration by creating the
\OS2\SVGADATA.PMI file. If the \OS2\SVGADATA.PMI file has not been
created, the adapter will not be supported. This process can take several sec-
onds and will black-out the screen.
6. When the Source Directory pop-up window requests the Vision868/968/Trio32/
64/64V+/64V2 diskette insert the diskette labelled "S3 DRV1". If the Source
Directory pop-up window requests the -CHIPDESC2- diskette insert the dis-
kette labelled "S3 DRV2". Then select Install.
7. When prompted to do so, select OK to perform a shutdown, and then restart
your computer. Make sure the diskette has been removed from the install drive.
