Identifying Video Cards on HP Kayak XA-s

The following table shows the correct video driver versions to be used with
the different video adapters installed on a Windows 95 operating system.
The HP Kayak XU

1

has a preloaded video driver that isn’t compatible with

the more recent Matrox Productiva G100 video adapter. This means that the
Matrox Millennium video driver cannot be used with the Matrox Productiva
G100 video adapter.

The following table shows the correct video driver versions to be used with
the different video adapters installed on a Windows NT 4.0 operating
system. The Matrox Productiva G100 video adapter is backward compatible
enabling it to be used with the Matrox Millennium II AGP video driver on the
HP Kayak XU PC.

For the Matrox Millennium G200, new video drivers are required.
