Congratulations on the purchase of your Graphics Accelerator!

This product has been designed and manufactured to the most stringent
specifications.

We are committed to supporting all major applications.

However, at the time of publication, we still had the following problems:


INSTALL:
--------

- The diagnostics utility TEST.COM may malfunction in very fast machines.



WINDOWS:
--------

-   1280x1024 Display Mode on the FlexDesk Control Panel

    Older versions of the mach8 board were not designed to support 1280x1024
    resolution.  Run the TEST.COM program that is contained on this disk to
    find out if you can display in 1280x1024.  This resolution is available
    only if you had selected a Monitor Type that is capable of displaying
    1280x1024 in the "Set Power-Up Configuration" menu when you run INSTALL.
    If you do not have 1280x1024 capability, do not select this resolution
    on the FlexDesk Control Panel.

    If you do have 1280x1024 capability, you may select this mode on the
    FlexDesk Control Panel; however, if, when you restart Windows, one of
    the following happens:

        1.  The screen goes black and Windows never seems to come up, or
        2.  Windows comes up, but the display is badly garbled.

    then this mode cannot be used.  Windows has actually started up, but is
    unable to display anything properly.  To recover from the above situation:

        1.  Press ALT-F4, and then ENTER to exit from Windows.
        2.  Run the Windows SETUP program from DOS.
        3.  Reselect the "ATI mach8 Driver".  You must reselect the driver,
            even if it is listed as the current display driver.

    The above steps force the mach driver back to 640x480 resolution and
    allow you to start Windows.  Once back in Windows, you may select any
    resolution other than 1280x1024 in the FlexDesk Control Panel.

-  Photostyler 1.0
   This program will not function in any mode with 512K Accelerators.
   It will also not function in 1280x1024 mode with 1.0MB Accelerators.

-  If using Bitstream Facelift with Crystal Font drivers, attempting to
   use Facelift Fonts at sizes greater than 35 points may cause problems with
   the display.


We are currently working on these problems, and the fixes should be available
soon.

Happy Computing!
