1       Introduction

        This file explains how to setup and to configure the ELSA
        Windows NT driver software for your ELSA graphics board.

1.1     Requirements

        This driver software runs on an ELSA GLoria II only.

1.2     Further Information

        For more information on configuring installed ELSA graphics
        drivers, refer to the Windows Help or to the help files for
        the ELSA Utilities.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

2       Installation

        NOTE: This driver was designed for full functionality
              under Windows NT 4.0 only!

        There are several ways to install the ELSA graphics driver:
        - Automatic installation by ELSA Setup Utility  (2.1)
        - Via the Windows dialog "Display Properties"   (2.2)

        NOTE: We recomend using the automatic installation!

        NOTE: First install the Standard-VGA driver, then shut down
              your computer and exchange the graphics board with
              the GLoria II.

2.1     Automatic installation with the ELSA Setup Utility

        First of all, start Windows NT. To run SETUP.EXE then, you
        can either double click on the filename in the Microsoft
        Explorer or choose "Run..." in the "Start" menu. Then you
        have to enter the complete path to the file "SETUP.EXE".
        Confirm with "OK".

        NOTE: Please close all programs before running Setup -
              especially other ELSA utilities.

        NOTE: Detailed information for the ELSA Setup Utility can
              be found in the Setup_en.txt file.

2.1.1   Installation on an Intel(R) Pentium III system

        While installing the ELSA driver the program
        CheckPentiumIIISupport may ask you to update your
        Windows NT 4.0 installation. In this case you are using an
        Intel(R) Pentium III processor, but the Intel(R) Streaming
        SIMD extension driver for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 service
        pack 4 is NOT installed. This additional driver is
        required for ELSA SIMDream(TM). You'll find this necessary
        Intel driver on the GLoria II-CD in the directory:
        \APPS\INTP3SUP\websetup.exe.

        Service Pack 5 already contains this driver.

2.2     Manual Installation via Display Properties

        In the Taskbar/Start/Settings, click on "Control Panel" and
        then select "Display Properties". Alternatively, you can
        right-click the desktop and in the appearing popup menu,
        select "Properties". Select "Settings" and then "Display
        Type". In the upcoming window you can use the "Change"
        button to select your ELSA graphics board. You will get the
        "Change Display" dialog box with a variety of available
        drivers.

        On the lower right-hand of the dialog box select the button
        "Other...". The dialog "Install from disk" appears with an
        indication of path or floppy drive ("A:\"). Change the
        entry to the path where the driver files for your board are
        located (e.g."\GLoriaII\WINNT40") and confirm with
        "Continue". Now a list of ELSA graphics drivers is
        displayed. Select the driver for your board. Confirm the
        dialog. The driver is installed after confirming the
        warning that a third-party driver will be installed.

        NOTE: Under Windows NT 4.0, graphics drivers cannot be
              loaded dynamically. This is a limitation of the
              operating system.

        To activate the ELSA driver the computer has to be
        restarted. Please press "Yes" in the upcoming dialog.
        The system will reboot and the initial installation is
        finished.

        The initial installation of ELSA drivers for Microsoft
        Windows NT 4.0 installs the driver at a resolution of
        640*480 pixel at 60Hz refresh.

        NOTE: With the installation of the Windows NT 4.0 driver,
              the ELSA OpenGL driver is automatically installed.

2.3     Determining the Driver Version Number

2.3.1   Determining the Driver Version Number via Display Properties

        From the Start menu, select "Settings" and in the Control
        Panel launch "Display". Select the tab "Settings" and then
        the button "Change configuration...". The following dialog
        gives information about the manufacturer, the version
        number and the current driver files.

        NOTE: If you see "Version Information missing ", you did
              not set US English as the system language. This
              problem will appear in all non-American NT
              installations. This is a limitation of the
              operating system.

2.3.2   Determining the Driver Version Number via the Driver Files

        Use the Explorer to inspect the file properties for one of
        the files EGLIIM.SYS or EGLIID.DLL. The file EGLIIM.SYS
        can be found in the directory System32\Drivers, the *.DLL
        file in the System32 directory of your Windows NT
        installation.

          Please run the utility CheckPentiumIIISupport.exe
          (shipped with this driver) to check if your system is
          properly configured.
