README.TXT - Documentation Supplement
Hercules Dynamite (tm)
Supplemental Drivers Diskette
8514/A AI EMULATION
============================
DIRECTORY: \RIXAI
This File: \RIXAI\README.TXT
============================
This directory contains emulation drivers for 8514/A AI.
This driver can be used with software applications that
run on an 8514/A graphics adapter.
Overview
--------
The instructions that follow explain how to install the
appropriate 8514/A emulation driver for your needs. In this
directory are the following files:
RIXAI4.EXE
RIXAI8.EXE
STAN0715.FNT
STAN0814.FNT
STAN1220.FNT
README.TXT (this file)
Two emulators are provided. Choose either emulator depending
on your video memory configuration and number of colors
desired. The following table illustrates the resolutions
available for each display driver:
Resolution Colors Mode (hex) Driver
---------- ------ ---------- ------
640x480 16 25 RIXAI4
1024x768 16 37 RIXAI4
640x480 256 2E RIXAI8
1024x768 256 38 RIXAI8
NOTE: Hercules Dynamite has 1MB memory installed and can run
all display resolutions listed above.
Installation
------------
1) Create a subdirectory on the hard disk called RIXAI or
another name of your choosing.
2) Copy the contents of the \RIXAI directory of the Hercules
Dynamite Supplemental Drivers Diskette to that newly-
created subdirectory.
Decide which version of the emulator is needed based on the
number of colors you wish and proceed.
4) Type "RIXAIx" [Enter] at the DOS prompt, where "x" is
either 4 or 8.
5) You can now run your application software under 8514/A
emulation.
Remember to load the appropriate emulation driver before running
application software that requires 8514/A. You might want to
create a simple batch file that loads the emulation driver and
your software automatically to simplify the process.
EXAMPLE: (acadai.bat)
RIXAI8
ACAD
You may need to reconfigure some software to run under an
8514/A driver. Check the user manuals of your applications
to determine if such a driver is supported.
