|    Section Ten - IBM Model Microchannel Con    |
|    14 Jan 25 14:07:31    |
      From: ohland@charter.net              Section Ten - IBM Model Microchannel Configuration              ImageAccel Microchannel display adapters include a VGA Terminator       and an IBM PS/2-XGA BOOT DISK for ImageAccel that are required       to get ImageAccel running without using a separate XGA or       multisync display.              The IBM Boot disk for ImageAccel is used ONCE, to get the       Model 77 to recognize and boot ImageAccel. The VGA Terminator       is required at BOOT TIME, to change the XGA adapter into VGA       mode, so ImageAccel can run OS/2 properly.              CAUTION: You must leave the VGA Terminator attached to the XGA       display port at BOOT TIME. If you don't, then PMShell full       screen prompts will paint your screen black (type ALT + HOME       to remedy this temporarily, changing the Full screen mode to       a Prompt window).                     IBM Model 77 Setup       -------------------       NOTE: Leave the XGA card in the proprietary IBM primary video slot.              Step 1: Install the ImageAccel Display adapter into the IBM       PS/2 Microchannel video slot (2).              * NOTE: If you add or remove any other adapter cards to your       system, you have to keep the VGA Terminator       installed on the XGA card, and boot using the boot       disk to re-run the configuration program again.              Step 2: Put the diskette labeled "IBM PS/2-XGA BOOT DISK for       ImageAccel" into the A: drive. (Contact Cornerstone       Technical Support for information on obtaining this       diskette).              Step 3: Place the VGA Terminator (3012682-002) onto the XGA       display adapter port. (Contact Cornerstone Technical       Support for information on obtaining the VGA Terminator).              Step 4: Boot the PC with the IBM PS-2 Boot disk for ImageAccel       and VGA TERMINATOR installed. (Note: The Boot disk is       not a DOS diskette - its not readable by DOS).              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
