Installing Operating Systems
If you want to install a new operating system or re-install a current operating system, re-
fer to the appropriate operating system manual for instructions.
Windows NT only ships on CD-ROM; it does not come on floppy disk. If Windows
NT was preloaded on the 9450, you may have to purchase an external parallel port
CD-ROM drive in order to re-install Windows NT.
Installing the 8x14 Font TSR
The 8x14 character font set has been removed from the Quadtel BIOS used on the AT4+
CPU board. This font set is now emulated to support most applications. If your applica-
tion does not display the 8x14 characters correctly you must install the TSR font file,
found on the disk included with the documentation kit or on C:\VGA\CIRRUS.
To do this, add the following line to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
After adding this line, reboot the system. For more information on editing the AUTO-
EXEC.BAT file, refer to the MS-DOS manual.
Installing Drivers
This section describes how to install the drivers associated with the 9450.
Video Drivers
Video drivers are found on the disk included with the documentation kit or on
C:\VGA\CIRRUS\WIN31 for AT4+ systems. Refer to the README file on this disk for
information on unzipping the video drivers. For AT5+ or AT4+PCI systems, the video
drivers are located in the following directories: C:\VGA\C&T548\WIN or using either of
the following extensions: \WINNT, \OS2.
Mouse Drivers
If you have purchased the mouse option on your 9450, mouse drivers are factory in-
stalled if your system comes preloaded with Windows 95 or Windows NT. Mouse driv-
ers are not installed if the system only has MS-DOS installed. To install MS-DOS mouse
drivers, refer to the mouse driver disk.
