1.2.1 SVM.EXE

     SVM is a menu-driven program designed to select and test all
     video modes available to the adapter.


1.2.1.1 How To Use SVM

     The SVM program can be executed in either of two ways: by
     calling up the menu and selecting from the menu choices, or
     by entering the desired mode directly with a specific
     command line.

HOW TO USE SVM FROM THE MENU

  1. Switch directory to UTILITY by typing in at the C prompt :

               CD\TVGAUTIL\UTILITY

  2. Type SVM to pull up the menu.
     The top bar shows the available color depths. This is
     traversed through by use of the right/left arrow keys.
     The program provides all the different resolutions supported
     by the chip under each color depth. These resolutions are
     traversed by the up/down arrow keys.
     The graphics adapter can be tested for each resolution/mode
     by first high-lighting the selection by use of the arrow keys,
     then pressing the F5 key.

     The graphics adapter can be run at a selected mode by first
     selecting the mode and then pressing ENTER.

     HOW TO USE SVM FROM THE COMMAND LINE

     The SVM program may be used to select a mode directly from
     the command line following two simple steps:

     Switch directory to UTILITY by typing in at the C prompt :

             CD\TVGAUTIL\UTILITY

     Type in SVM [mode number]ENTER

     For example, to run the graphics adapter in mode 62H, the
     command for item 2 above would be:
     SVM 62 ENTER


1.2.2 SMONITOR
   Switches between color and monochrome display. Some monitors
   (most notably Samsung monitors manufactured before 2/8/91) do
   not adhere to the standard IBM pinout definitions,  which
   causes the VGA card to boot up in monochrome instead of color.
   This utility may be used to correct the problem.  To run, add
   the following command to your Autoexec.bat file SMONITOR C.

   To run from the DOS prompt, just type SMONITOR from the
   directory where you have installed the utilities.


1.2.3 TVGACRTC

     The TVGACRTC program allows the adjustment of video display
     parameters so that images are optimally sized and centered on
     the screen. Adjustable parameters include :

              Horizontal size and position.
              Vertical size and position.
              Pixel frequency.

     The program is started from the DOS prompt by typing in
     TVGACRTC from the C:\TVGAUTIL\UTILITY directory.

     The first section of the program is used to define a given
     name for the adjustments to be made.

    1. Press ENTER to add a new monitor entry and type in the
       name of the manufacturer, followed by ENTER  keystroke. The
       program will allow any name to be typed in.

    2. Type in the associated comments for the monitor settings
       and press ENTER.

    3. A mode table will be displayed, presenting all the
       adjustable modes.

    4. This table is traversed through the use of the up/down
       arrow keys. The mode high lighted is the selected mode
       for adjustment.

    5. Select the mode to be adjusted and press ENTER.

    6. Select the desired pixel rate by scrolling the list
       using the up/down arrow keys and press ENTER  twice.

    7. The screen alignment test pattern will than be displayed.
       The up/down arrow keys are used to adjust the vertical
       positioning of the screen. The left/right arrow keys are
       used or horizontal alignment of the screen. The home/end
       keys are used for horizontal screen sizing and the page
       up/down keys are used for vertical screen sizing. Once
       the screen position and size is adjusted, press ENTER,
       followed by the ESC keystroke.

    8. To save the settings, type Y and press ENTER. The program
       will then modify the Config.sys file.

    9. At this point press ESC and reboot the system to enable the
       parameter changes.


2. Driver Installation

     After selecting Drivers from the Main Menu, you will be
     presented with a list of possible drivers to install.
     Select the desired driver you wish to install.  You will be
     presented with a version list for the given application.
     Choose the appropriate version of the application.  Once
     you have selected the desired driver, the installation
     program will either provide you with further instructions,
     or guide you through the installation.  The following pages
     give details for installing each available driver.
