REQUIREMENTS - VGA based ATI products:

Various modes  require  different  hardware  and memory. If the driver's
hardware and memory  requirements  are  not met at load time, the driver
will exit to DOS  and  report  an  error.  This error will also occur if
the card's monitor configuration  is  incorrect (i.e. card is configured
for a PS2 monitor and the selected resolution is higher than 640x480).

Please note that mode  65H  (1024x768/16  paged  type) is not supported.
Instead, mode 55H (1024x768/16 planar type) is supported.  V3 VGA Wonder
do not support mode 55H. A V3 VGA Wonder card is identified by having V3
as the first two characters in the ROM version label. If this resolution
is required and you own a  V3  VGA  Wonder,  ATI  has a hardware upgrade
program in place. Please contact ATI Customer Support for details.


REQUIREMENTS - Accelerator based products:

These  drivers  will  work  with  either  512K  or 1Mbyte of accelerator
memory.  With 512K,  16 colors will be displayed.  On 1Mbyte boards, 256
colors are displayed.

For 800x600 operation, the  Graphics  ULTRA/VANTAGE  ROM version must be
1130111513 (v1.3) or newer.  For  8514  ULTRA  ROMs, the version must be
1330111330 (v1.3) or newer. Please contact ATI Customer  Support for ROM
upgrade details. The ROM  version  label  is  displayed  in  the startup
banner on system startup.

These  drivers	will  work  with  either  512K	or 1Mbyte of accelerator
memory.  With 512K,  16 colors will be displayed.  On 1Mbyte boards, 256
colors are displayed.

INSTALLATION

To Install ATI's Windows 3.1 Drivers:

1)  Exit Windows.

2)  Change directory (CD) to your Windows directory.

3)  Place the ATI Windows 3.1 Display Driver Disk into drive A.

4)  Type "setup" at the DOS prompt.

5)  Select Display - "Other (Requires disk provided by a hardware manufact.."

6)  Select the desired screen resolution and press Enter. Setup will copy
    files from the diskette into your  Windows directories. Setup may ask
    for some Windows diskettes.  Enter  "A:" (or "B:") so setup continues
    to use the ATI driver disk.

7)  When Setup is complete, type "win" at the MS-DOS prompt to start
    Windows.

Notes - General:
===============

The ATI driver disk is designed  to  copy  all  available drivers to your
Windows SYSTEM  directory  depending  on  which  type  of ATI product you
own. For example,  if  you  select  any  ATI  ULTRA driver, all ATI ULTRA
drivers will be copied.  This   method  eliminates  the need for Setup to
reuse the ATI driver disk repeatedly for post alternate driver selections
since the required drivers will already be present on your hard drive.


Notes - VGA based drivers:
=========================

The following drivers contain support for V3 VGA Wonder cards:
. 640x480/256 Small & Large font (512K)
. 800x600/16  Small Font (256K)
. 800x600/256 Small & Large font (512K)

For windowed DOS sessions, it is recommended that you select
"High Graphics" for DOS prompt or DOS application PIF files.


Notes - Accelerator based drivers:
=================================

The  following  features  are  missing  from the current ATI Accelerator
drivers disk. These drivers will be provided in a later release.

. Crystal Font drivers.
