Installation
This section covers installation of the ATI RADEON 7500 graphics controllers' support
software on various versions of the OpenVMS Alpha operating system.
4.2.1
OpenVMS Alpha Version higher than 7.3-1
For OpenVMS Alpha Version higher than 7.3-1, the ATI RADEON 7500 graphics
controller support software is loaded automatically following installation and becomes
active when the operating system is booted. No other action needs to be taken by the system
operator.
4.2.2
OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.3-1
The ATI RADEON 7500 graphics controller is not supported on any OpenVMS Alpha
Version prior to 7.3-1.
To install the ATI RADEON 7500 graphics controller support software on OpenVMS Alpha
Version 7.3-1, you must copy the latest UPDATE and GRAPHICS POLYCENTER
Software Installation utility patch kits from the World Wide Web location at
http://www.support.HP.com/patches/ or via anonymous ftp at ftp1.support.HP.com. Then,
use the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility (DCL PRODUCT INSTALL) to install
the latest UPDATE kit and the latest GRAPHICS kit, if required. View the Readme files for
each kit to determine if the UPDATE kit has superseded the GRAPHICS kit or if the
GRAPHICS kit is newer than the UPDATE kit.
For more information on using POLYCENTER Software Installation utility, see the
POLYCENTER Software Installation Utility User's Guide.
