DESCRIPTION:  This SoftPaq unpacks the files required to install 
the video driver for Windows NT 3.51 for the S3 V2/GX or ViRGE/GX 
controller used in the above-mentioned Deskpro 4000 models. 
Optionally allows a driver diskette to be created.

This version addresses certain Microsoft HCT (Hardware Compatibility 
Test) failures occuring on higher speed computers, and also corrects a 
problem that prevents the RealMagic Pro MPEG adapter from displaying 
video streams.

HOW TO USE:

1. Download the SoftPaq to a temporary, empty directory on your 
hard drive.  The file downloaded is a self-extracting executable 
with a filename based on the SoftPaq Number above.

2. From the download directory, execute the SoftPaq.  When executed 
with no parameters, files are extracted into the current directory.
To extract the files into a different directory, specify the complete 
path of the directory as a parameter:

     SPxxxx <path> 

Enter "Y" to confirm and files are unpacked into the download 
directory or the directory specified.  

3. After the files have been created, you may delete the  
self-extracting file downloaded in step 1.

4. The driver may be installed directly from the files on the download 
directory or a driver diskette can be created. 
To create a driver diskette, run MAKEDISK.BAT.
To install the driver, go to the Control Panel and select:

   Display/Settings/Display Type

Verify that the Adapter Type is S3 V2/GX or S3 ViRGE/GX. 
If it is not, then Cancel and Exit.
If it is, then select:
    
   Change/Have Disk

Type in the path to the download directory or select "Browse" to 
specify the location of the files extracted in step 2.

5. Select OK to install the driver.

6. After the driver has been installed, you may delete the files 
from the download directory if you wish.
