S Ection 1 I Ntroduction - S3 Graphics CHROME 400 Series User Manual

SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION
This S3 Graphics User Guide provides instruction for the installation and removal
of display drivers and associated utilities for the Windows Vista and Windows XP
operating systems using S3 Graphics CHROME 500 Series GPUs.
1.1 How to Use this Guide
This section summarizes the basic conventions used in S3 Graphics User Guide
instructions.
Subject to Change: S3 Graphics continues software enhancements throughout
the life of a product. The images provided as illustrations of utility and user
selection options are always subject to change and may not be identical either in
appearance or in options to the software your vendor has provided. This guide is
compatible with S3 Graphics software as of the document date.
Installation instructions assume you have a vendor-supplied CD which contains
S3 Graphics software customized for your S3 Graphics hardware. The
instructions in this document assume that the source drive for the software is a
hard drive or CD-ROM drive mapped by the system as drive D:. If installation is
from another source, replace D: with the appropriate source drive location.
Instructions also assume that your operating environment is either:
•
Windows Vista SP1 or
•
Windows XP with SP3 and includes the latest release of DirectX.
These environments provide an optimized user experience with your S3
Graphics' hardware.
Most examples show the appearance and behavior representative of the
Windows Vista operating system. Windows XP will behave similarly, but not
necessarily identically, unless noted otherwise.
