This README file contains the following information:
A) Installation of the BigWin Driver
B) Notes and Known Restrictions
C) SPEA BigWin and Windows 95
A) Installation of the BigWin Driver
====================================
Start Windows and choose at the Program Manager:
FILE-RUN
and type A:\V7SETUP.
(Only for floppy disk installation, does not apply to CD ROM install.)
B) Notes and Known Restrictions
===============================
V7SETUP:
--------
1) V7SETUP adds line "BASEADDRESS=0" in SYSTEM.INI under title
[CAD1K.DRV], required for BigWin. Only if system has more
than 32 MB RAM, SYSTEM.INI should be edited and this value
be changed to 1.
2) If you run Windows programs using a modem you should change
in SYSTEM.INI under title [CAD1K.DRV] the line CHIPSYNC=0 to
CHIPSYNC=1.
3) During the first installation the driver will be installed with the
lowest possible refresh rate at the chosen resolution.
If you use a high-class multi-sync monitor and you choose a
resolution 1024x768 and above, synchronisation problems may occur.
To prevent this, please primarily choose the resolution
640x480. Afterwards you can change to the preferred resolution and
refresh rate with the utility V7SETUP, which appears automatically
after starting Windows.
4) Installing graphics drivers for Windows and Virus Check Programs
Virus check programs, such as the DOS 6.0 internal one, which search
for changes at *.exe and *.com files, detect changes at the file
win.com after installing the SPEA V7 BigWin driver. This is not a
virus, because while installing the driver, driver supplements will
be saved in this file.
SPEA BigWin Driver:
-------------------
1) The SPEA V7 BigWin driver may not be used in 80286 based
systems.
2) VDD limitation: Cannot execute any VGA graphics modes in a
windowed mode. The XGA driver supplied by Microsoft has a similiar
limitation.
3) True Color:
If you use more than 15 icons in one program group, a message will
tell you that not all symbols are converted correctly. These symbols
will be displayed in black. This is caused by a Microsoft Program
Manager limitation.
WINtune:
--------
WINtune is not available for the V7-MIRAGE P-64 with Trio64 chip.
C) SPEA BigWin and Windows 95
=============================
The program V7SETUP and the BigWin drivers have been adapted to the
Windows 95 requirements and have been tested with the current Final
Beta Release of Windows 95 "4.00.347".
The following resrictions will be fixed upto the final delivery of
Windows 95:
- SPEAview does not yet work under Windows 95.
- With this version driver adjustments (resolutions, color depth,
refresh rate) may be done only using V7SETUP and not yet using the
system configuration routines from Windows 95.
