Using Special VGA Features

Your built-in VGA (video graphics array) display adapter

supports both standard VGA monitors and multi-frequency
monitors with analog connectors. The VGA adapter allows

these monitors to operate in all standard VGA modes without

requiring any special device drivers. However, if you are using a
multi-frequency monitor that supports extended VGA features,

you may want to use one or more of the device drivers provided

on the Utility diskettes that came with your system. These

device drivers allow you to use all of the capabilities of your
monitor and your built-in VGA display adapter.

You need to install device drivers if you want to use extended
VGA features such as these:

Resolutions up to 800 x 600 in graphics modes with

16 colors

132-column text mode in 16 colors

Graphics cursor movement performed by the built-in VGA

hardware.
