Installation” CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive – the setup
program automatically starts.

operating system you’re using. Follow the on-screen
instructions.

The setup program prompts you to restart your computer. Leave the CD-ROM in your
CD-ROM drive and click

If this is a first-time installation, your display is using a 640 × 480 resolution with 256 colors –
supported by most monitors. To adjust software monitor settings:
for Windows NT 4.0,
see “Matrox PowerDesk software”, page 16
.
for Windows 98, see Windows 98 online help under “Multiple Display support”.
* If Windows doesn’t automatically start the setup program, you can start it manually from the root folder of the
CD-ROM.
