Installing Windows 3.0
----------------------
Run SETUP from DOS and scroll up to "Display" using the arrow keys and
[Enter]. Scroll down to "Other (Required disk provided by hardware
manufacturer)" and [Enter]. Insert the Cirrus Logic GD542x Windows
Drivers Disk in A: or B: and type WIN30 in the box where Windows prompts
to enter the hardware manufacturer display device driver. For example,
type the following:
A:\WIN30
You will then be presented with the following:
Cirrus 542x v1.0, Multi-res 16 colors
Cirrus 542x v1.0, Multi-res 256 colors
Select any of the above and press [ENTER].
When Windows SETUP asks you to insert the
"Cirrus Logic GD542x Windows 3.x Fonts Diskette", enter the same disk drive
as you did above, be instead reference the SYSTEM directory. For example,
type the following:
A:\SYSTEM
Later you will be asked to insert the
"Cirrus Logic GD542x Windows 3.0 Driver Diskette", This time use
the WIN30 directory. For example, type the following:
A:\WIN30
SETUP will complete the installation.
The GD542x Multi-Resolution color drivers will require that a section
in your SYSTEM.INI. The Windows 3.0 SETUP program must be used to
select the default configuration of the 16 or 256 color drivers. You
will find that it is easiest to use the SetRES utility to configure
resolutions and color selections. Run the INSTALL utility on the
Windows distribution disk to copy the drivers and the SetRES utility to
your hard drive. Then run SetRes from within windows to configure your
instalation. Do not select either the 64K color or 16.8 Million color
options from Windows 3.0 as these are Windows 3.1 drivers and may not
function correctly.
Manually Editing the SYSTEM.INI file
After exiting the SETUP program, edit the SYSTEM.INI file to change the
resolution manually. Any text editor may be used, including EDLIN, or
EDIT that came with your version of DOS, or Notepad found in the
accessories group of your Windows 3.0 installation. Find the section
[CLVGA]. The [CLVGA] section will not exist when you first setup
Windows 3.0. You must add one to the end of the SYSTEM.INI file. Type
in one of the sections below:
