- This is how to install the Overscan :
-
- Copy the OVERSCAN.PRG to Your auto-folder on Your harddisk or if You
- don't have a harddisk copy it to Your boot disk into an auto folder.
-
- Copy also the VIDEO50.PRG to the auto-folder to make sure Your ST will
- start with 50 Hertz picture frequency in color mode.
-
- If You still have the old ROMTOS from 1985 inside Your ST, then copy
- also a BETA-RAMTOS 1.4 or the Developer-RAMTOS 1.4 to Your boot disk
- into the root-directory !
- This disk has to have then a bootable sector, so that it will boot
- automaticaly the TOS.IMG-file (BETA- or Developer-RAMTOS 1.4).
-
- (If You already have the Blitter-TOS or the new (EP)ROMTOS 1.4 inside
- Your ST, then You only have to have the OVERSCAN.PRG and VIDEO50.PRG
- inside the autofolder and don't need an additional RAMTOS)
-
- Switch the Overscan-switch to OVERSCAN and boot the disk or boot from
- Your harddisk.
-
- If You press the CONTROL-, SHIFT-, or ALTERNATE- key, the Overscan.PRG
- will come up with an installation menu.
- From this menu You can fit the screen resolution to Your monitor size
- and still can save this, so Your ST will start up with the right size
- the next time.
- With key "P" You get the "Physebase"-emulator, so Calamus DTP works
- now also !
-
- In color mode: If You want to change from lowres to midres go to the
- "change resolution"-menu from the GEM SHELL and click "okay" while
- depressing the CONTROL-,SHIFT-, or ALTERNATE-key.Then the
- OVERSCAN-installation menu comes up again and You can change to midres
- and the other way around.
- Use the arrow keys and the + - * / keys to modify the size of the
- Overscan screen.
- The HELP key brings You back to the menu.
- "S" saves the new screen size and "Q" quits the menu without saving to
- (hard)disk.
-
- Have fun with the Overscan, Stefan Hartmann.
