MMS Graphics CD.
Procedures for installation PCI expansion boards (i.e. graphics controllers) are also
provided in the documentation included with your computer. Please refer to this
documentation for recommended hardware configurations as some computers may
have restrictions on the location of the graphics controller, i.e. a particular PCI slot.
NOTE: To connect the Matrox G200 Multi-Monitor Series graphics controller to a digital
monitor with a Digital Visual Interface (DVI), you will need to purchase option kit 170840-
