2 After installing the drivers
In this chapter you will find descriptions of
쎲
where you can find the software for operating your ELSA graphics board,
쎲
the performance characteristics of your graphics board, and
쎲
the most effective tuning for the combination of monitor and ELSA
graphics board.
2.1 Software installation from the CD
The ELSA graphics board is normally supplied with software on a CD-ROM.
You will find all the utilities described in this manual on the GLADIAC 511
CD—unless they are a component of the operating system.
Once you have successfully completed the steps described in the Installation
Guide, your
ELSA GLADIAC 511 is integrated into your computer system with
installed drivers. If the autostart function for your CD-ROM drive under Win-
dows has been switched off, the setup program on the
GLADIAC 511 CD will
not start automatically. It can be found and started manually from the root
directory of the CD and is called SETUP.EXE.
The greater part of the installation is automated; ELSA setup detects the
installed operating system and ELSA graphics board(s). First of all select the
language for the installation and then the components you wish to install.
2.2 The right settings
Our tip is: Invest a little time at this stage and you won’t regret it. Take your
time to set up your system just right. Your eyes will thank you for it, and you
are guaranteed to have more fun in front of your screen.
To set up your system properly, the following questions should be answered:
쎲
What is the maximum resolution I can set on my system?
쎲
Which color depth do I want to use?
쎲
How high should the refresh rate be set?
To help you find the answers to these questions, this chapter has been
divided according to the operating systems available. Just look for the
section about the operating system you use. All you need to know you will
