Setting the Display Driver to Standard VGA
To avoid possible driver conflicts between your old and new graphics
card, install the standard VGA driver for your operating system. Install
the standard VGA driver before you shut down your computer and
remove the installed (AGP, PCI, or ISA) VGA card.
Note: Installing the standard VGA driver is not required for
Windows 2000.
The applications for which you want to install drivers also have to be
completely installed for Standard VGA - 640 x 480 on your system
prior to using the new software. It is a good idea to do this before
removing an existing graphics adapter as not every application may
permit the configuration of its video mode from the operating system
level.
Installing the Standard VGA Driver for Windows NT 4.0
1. From the Start menu, go to Start > Settings > Control Panel,
then double-click on Display. The Display Properties sheet
appears.
2. Click the Settings tab; then click the Display Type button.
3. Under Adapter Type, click the Change button. The Change
Display window appears.
4. Under Manufacturers, select (Standard display types). Under
Display, choose VGA compatible display adapter.
5. Click OK. You may need to insert your Windows NT 4.0 CD-ROM.
6. Click Close and OK as often as necessary to accept the changes.
7. Windows asks you if you want to restart your computer. Click No.
8. Shut down your computer. You are now ready to remove your old
graphics card and install your new Fire GL2 card.
