Installation Notes
------------------

1. If you are working under windows 95 , you have to install DirectDraw
   before installing MPEG driver and player. The DirectDraw installation
   files can be found at \DIRECTX6.

2. If your motherboard uses Intel, VIA or ALi chipset with AGP bus,
   you can install their AGP GART driver by executing VGInst.exe under
   \VGARTD directory. It will enable their AGP functions on Windows 95
   OSR 2.1 (If your motherboard uses SiS AGP chipset, please contact
   SiS for newest driver to be compatible with ASUS V3800 Series).

3. Windows 95/98 OpenGL ICD and video capture driver (for TV models only)
   have been included.

4. Quick installation works only when it finds that Primary Display is
   V3800 Series or device node exists. You can also ignore the warning dialog
   and continue to install driver. If it do not work, you must install
   driver via Windows PnP dialog or Display property page(use ASUS3800.INF).

5. To make better capturing performane, you may need to check:
   1) Make sure DMA mode is enabled if you use IDE DMA/33 or DMA/66 hard-drives.
      (Control Panel => System => Device Manager => Disk Drives =>
       Properties => Settings => Options => DMA)
   2) Run Disk Defragmenter (DeFrag.exe) if hard driver is near full.



Trouble Shootings
------------------

1. After installing the driver, Windows 95/98 doesn't prompt me for restarting
   and the driver still doesn't work after I reboot it by myself.

   You may have installed similar drivers before. Try the following steps
   to install:

   (1) Use right button of mouse to click on "My Computer" icon on desktop.
   (2) Select "Properties" and "System Properties" box appears
   (3) Click on "Device Manager" tab
   (4) You will see a list of devices on your computer.
   (5) If "Display adapters" appears in the list, click it.
       If "Display adapters" doesn't appear, jump to step 9 and continue.

   (6) The name of your card will be listed in the box. Double click it.
   (7) The properties box of your card appears. Select "Driver" tab.
   (8) Click "Change Driver.." and follow the installation steps.

  (10) Click on the name of card, the properties box appears.
       Select "Driver" tab.
  (11) Click "Change Driver.." and follow the installation steps.

2. After installation and restarting, Windows 95/98 informs me that display
   setting is still incorrect. What can I do?

   There may be conflict between previous and current display drivers.
   This is caused by not complete removal of previous display driver. Try
   the following steps to remove it:

   (1) Use right button of mouse to click on "My Computer" icon on desktop.
   (2) Select "Properties" and "System Properties" box appears
   (3) Click on "Device Manager" tab
