DRIVERS  INSTALLATION

FOR  GEM  2.2-3.1

The  GEM  drivers  on your  Qtec  VGA1024  driver  diskette  are  used

 

for  GEM  versions 

2.2 

and 

3.0-3.1. 

The  drivers  whose  file

 

extensions  end  in 

.VGA  are 

for GEM Versions  3.0-3.1,  while

 

those  ending  in 

.SYS  are 

for  GEM  Version  2.2. 

This  is

transparent  to  the  individual  GEM programs  as  they will  seek

 

out  the  appropriate  driver  files  during  loading.

Please  note  that  the  Qtec  VGA1024  Driver  Diskette  supplied  to

 

you 

is 

created 

specifically  for  the  drivers  contained

 

therein. 

The original  has  a volume  label  called  GEM  DRIVRPK

that  GEM  must 

see  in  order  to  load  the  drivers. 

If  you  need

 

additional  back  up  copy  of  your driver diskette,  it  must  be

 

indentically  copied  using  the  DOS  DISKCOPY command  in  order  to

 

preserve  the  integrity  of  the  order  and  content  of 

the

 

original.

Driver  Installation  for  GEM  2.2

The 

following  instructions  are  applicable  to  users  of  GEM Version

 

2.2  and  the  Qtec  VGA1024  Adapter.

Please  be 

sure  that  your monitor  is  capable  of  displaying  these

 

resolutions 

in  order  the  utilize  the  drivers. 

Choosing  a  higher

 

resolution  than  your  monitor  is  capable  of  displaying  will  bring

 

unsatisfactory  results.

The  enclosed  GEM  driver  files  require  a  new GEMSETUP.TXT  file  to

 

be 

installed  in  place  of  that  which  is  on  GEM  Device  Driver

 

Diskette 

#1. 

The  driver  makes 

full  use  of  the  800x600  and

 

1024x768  graphics  mode  of  the  Qtec  VGA1024  adapter.

Before  installing  GEM,  perform the  following  steps:

1. 

Make  a  DISKCOPY  of  GEM  Device  Driver  Disk  #1. 

This  copy  will

 

be  used  in  place  of  the  original  during  installation.

2. 

Copy  GEMSETUP.V22 

from  your  Qtec  VGA1024  Driver  Diskette  to

 

the  newly-created  copy  of  the  GEM Device  Driver  Disk  #1,  as

 

GEMSETUP.TXT.
