2       Installation instructions

2.1     Preparation

        Note: If there were already other graphics boards
              installed, their referring "oemx.inf" and
              "oemx.pnf" files (where "x" read as numbers) in
              the INF subdirectory of your system have to be
              deleted. This is to ensure that the Plug&Play
              recognition of Windows 2000 is working properly.

        Copy all listed driver files to a formatted disk (or a
        temporary directory). Uninstall all display adapter devices
        under CONTROL PANEL/SYSTEM/HARDWARE/DEVICE MANAGER/DISPLAY
        ADAPTERS. Remove your floppy disk and reboot your system.


2.2     Installation

        Windows 2000 uses Plug&Play functions to recognize your
        display adapter. Here is how:

        1. Device recognized. The "Found New Hardware" wizard
           will guide you.
           - click "Next" - choose option
           "Display a list of the known drivers ..."
           - click "Next"
           - choose "Display Adapters"
           - click "Next"
           - click "Have Disk..."
           - choose the directory from (2.1)
           - click "Ok"
           - choose entry "ELSA GLoria II
           - click "Next"
           - click "Next"
           - click "Yes".
           Now the driver will be installed.
           - click "Finish.

        2. The installtion of the display driver is finished now.
           Remove your floppy disk and reboot your system now.

        Note: Depending on your monitor at the next reboot
              Plug&Play will recognize and install a monitor
              device.

2.3     Verification

        Open CONTROL PANEL/DISPLAY/SETTINGS. Verify that you can
        read "Plug and Play Monitor on ELSA GLoria II".
        You should now be able to use a resolution higher than
        800x600.

2.4     Adjusting Refresh Frequencies

        Click "Advanced" Button on Display Properties Page. Go to
        Monitor Properties Page and use the DropDown-List "Refresh
        Frequency".


2.5.    Display Driver Update with w2ksetup.exe

        For easy driver update you can use w2ksetup.exe simply by
        doubleclicking on it in Windows Explorer.

        After installation the driver will be started automatically.
        If this is not possible you will be asked to restart your
        computer.

        If the driver cannot be installed a messagebox will be
        displayed.

2.5.1.  Commandline Parameters

        You can also control w2ksetup by commandline options.
        The following options are available:

        SILENT    - No dialog boxes are displayed during (un)
                    installation which would require user
                    interaction.

        REBOOT    - After (un)installation the system will be
                    automatically rebooted if necessary.

        UNINSTALL - All ELSA graphics board drivers will be
                    uninstalled. A dialog box informs at the end if
                    a restart is required.

        SERVICE   - Allows the user to specify the service to
                    uninstall (e.g. EGLIIM).
                    Without this option all ELSA graphics drivers
                    will be uninstalled.
                    This parameter has no influence on installation.


       Examples:

       Installation:
       - W2KSetup.exe SILENT REBOOT

                        Installs the ELSA driver for Windows 2000
                        without user interaction. If necessary, the
                        system will be rebooted automatically.
                        Otherwise the driver will be started
                        directly.

       Uninstallation:
       - W2KSetup.exe UNINSTALL SILENT REBOOT SERVICE EGLIIM

                        Uninstalls the ELSA display driver for a
                        GLoria II.
                        If necessary, the system will be rebooted.


       Note:    Be careful when using the manual uninstallation.
                Wrong usage could lead to an unstable system.


2.5.2. Exitcodes (for automated installation):

       The following exitcodes are returned by w2ksetup:

       -1 : Something went wrong without the driver being installed.
            (e.g. no inf-file found)

        0 : (Un)Installation failed. Possible cause: Driver does not
            match the graphics board.

        1 : Driver was (un)installed successfully.

3       Additional Configuration Options

3.1     Additional Tools

3.1.1   ELSA Application Settings

        The ELSA Application Settings allow you to configure the 3D
        options of your ELSA GLoria graphics board. You will find
        this tool as a tab in the display properties.
        You also will find a detailed description by clicking the
        Help key.

3.1.2   ELSA Info

        ELSA Info offers a quick view of all relevant information
        about your hard- and software configuration. First of all,
        this is a diagnostic tool, which should help you in solving
        configuration problems of your graphics system.
        You can redirect all shown information to file or printer.
        The generated output will be helpful in getting quick
        and efficient support from ELSA.

3.1.3   ELSA Settings

        The ELSA Settings utility is not shipped with this driver.
        Read the Known Bugs section for a workaround.

3.2     Stereo function

        This driver provides Stereo functionality in combination
        with stereo shutterglasses and a stereo capable application.
        To activate the stereo function select a stereo profile in
        the ELSA Application settings tab. You may also mark the
        stereo checkbox in ELSA Application Settings under
        "Advanced".
        You will find detailed help about creating new Application
        Settings profiles in the Application Settings helpfile.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

4       Known Bugs

        Currently the ELSA Settings utility isn't supported by the
        driver. To create new monitor timings we included a command
        line utility named GLIIMODE.exe to the package. It can be
        found in the Windows folder in the ELSAUTIL subdirectory.
        Start the program with "GLIIMODE /?" for more information.
