DESCRIPTION:  Unpacks the files needed to install the Microsoft Windows 95/98
video driver for the Matrox Millennium II, G100, and Millennium G200 Video 
Controllers used in the above-mentioned Deskpro computers.  
Optionally creates three installation diskettes.

Enhancements/Fixes:
 - Adds support for Matrox Millennium II Video Controller
 - Corrects INF file error in superseded SoftPaq SP7481 that caused support for 
   the G100 to fail.  This version properly supports the G100 Video Controller. 

HOW TO USE:

1. Download the Softpaq to a directory on your hard drive.  The file downloaded is 
a self-extracting executable with the file name based on the Softpaq Number above.

2. From the download directory, execute the SoftPaq.  When executed with no 
parameters, files are extracted into new folders that are created in the current 
directory.   To create the folders in a different directory, specify the complete 
path of the directory as a parameter when executing the SoftPaq:

   SPXXXX <path>

Enter "Y" to confirm and folders are created in the download directory or the 
directory specified.

3. After the folders disk_01 and disk_02 have been created, you may delete the 
self-exctracting file downloaded in step 1.

4. The driver may be installed directly from the folders in the download 
directory, or two driver installation diskettes can be created.  

To create installation diskettes, run MAKEDISK.BAT.

To read detailed installation and usage instructions, refer to README.TXT.

5. To install the driver, run SETUP.EXE from the first installation diskette or 
from directory disk_01 if installing from the hard drive.
For example, select Start, Run, then enter:

   <path>\disk_01\setup

   where <path> is the drive and directory chosen in step 2 

6. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
