See the release notes that ship with your Avid Xpress system for the latest
revisions of the shipping software and the minimum hardware revisions of the
boards. The software revisions and the minimum hardware revisions will be
in the next release of this guide.
Removing the AGP Graphics Board
The AGP graphics board supplied with the IBM 6868 system
must
be
removed when you install a Meridien display controller board. When
you remove the AGP graphics board, you must install the Meridien
display controller board
before
you turn on the system. Once the Avid
Windows NT editing application is installed, the display controller
board replaces the platform AGP graphics board and is used as the
active graphics board.
c
The AGP graphics board should be kept accessible to the system for
troubleshooting purposes. It should also be configured in the
"original" configuration during the boot procedure.
