Installing Software
The Oxygen Product CD-ROM for the Oxygen VX1/GVX1 includes OpenGL video driver
software, which lets you set image quality and performance preferences for your card. It also
includes the Soft Engine AutoCAD accelerator and productivity tool package, and Colorific
screen-to-print color matching software. Installing Soft Engine on your AutoCAD equipped
system will improve graphics performance by up to four times, while Colorific painlessly
ensures that what you see is what you print.
