INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
-------------------------

        NOTES:

         1.  You must have OS/2 DOS Support installed in order to
             install this driver.

         2.  The OS/2 ATTRIB command is used during installation.  If you
             elected not to install the OS/2 System Utility Programs or you
             have deleted the ATTRIB, command you must use Selective Install to
             restore the ATTRIB command before continuing.

         3.  If you previously installed SVGA support, return to VGA resolution
             using the new SETVGA procedure found at the end of this README
             before you install this driver.


INSTALLATION FROM DISKETTE
--------------------------

This video accelerator driver is compatible with OS/2 2.1.  Do not install it
on previous versions of OS/2.

To install this S3 video accelerator driver from diskette:

    1.  Place this diskette into drive A (or any other diskette drive).

    2.  Open an OS/2 full-screen or OS/2 window session.

    3.  At the OS/2 command prompt, type the following command:

        A:S3INST A: C:

             where:  A: is the diskette drive
                     C: is the drive where OS/2 2.1 is installed

        This command will copy all necessary files to the OS/2 drive.

    4.  Remove the diskette from the diskette drive, perform a shutdown, and
        then restart the system.

    5.  Open the "OS/2 System" folder.

    6.  Open the "System Setup" folder.


    7.  Open the "Display Driver Install" (DSPINSTL) object.

        When the Display Driver Install window appears, "S3" should be the
        default choice.  Select "OK".

        When the Monitor Configuration/Selection Utility window appears,
        the "Install Using Defaults for Monitor Type" option is preselected.
        You can accept this option or select the "Install Using Display Adapter
        Utility Program" option.

        NOTE:  If you select the Install Using Display Adapter Utility
               Program option, follow the instructions on your screen.
               For additional information about this option, you can
               refer to pages 114 and 115 in the "OS/2 2.1 Installation
               Guide".

     8. When the source directory pop-up window appears, insert the S3
        Video Accelerator Driver diskette and select Install.

        DSPINSTL determines the hardware configuration by creating the
        SVGADATA.PMI file on the drive where the OS2 directory is located.
        If the SVGADATA.PMI file has not been created, the adapter will not be
        supported.

     9.  When the installation is complete, do the following:
         a.  Open "OS/2 System".
         b.  Open "System Setup".
         c.  Open the "System" object.  The Screen page of the Settings
             notebook lists all the supported resolutions for your
             configuration.
         d.  Select a resolution; then, close the notebook.

    10.  Perform a shutdown; then, restart the system.

Note that during the installation of this driver a DISPLAY.LOG file is
created in the OS2\INSTALL directory.  This file identifies the OS/2 2.1 system
files that were updated and indicates whether the installation was successful.
The contents of this file might be useful if you need to report an
installation problem to IBM.
