      From: ohland@charter.net              ImageAccel (MCA bus) and XGA Controllers              Files:                     Revised:08/11/93       PURPOSE       To instruct Cornerstone customers on the installation of the ImageAccel       video controllers with IBM XGA video controllers in PS/2 computers.              ACTION       When installing the ImageAccel Micro Channel video controller, you must       leave the installed XGA controller in the computer. This is necessary       for the ImageAccel video controller to frame grab XGA signals for DOS use.              The ImageAccel video controller must be installed in the secondary video       slot. When the computer is booted, the ImageAccel controller will not be       seen by the computer due to the XGA BIOS ROM, until the PS/2 Reference       Disk is used to install the ImageAccel configuration file.              If you are installing a Cornerstone Color Monitor, you will need to       attach the monitor to the XGA controller to run the PS/2 Reference Disk.       After setting the configuration for the ImageAccel controller, you can       then attach the monitor to the ImageAccel controller. Remember, you must       leave the XGA controller in the computer.              Installing a Cornerstone monochrome monitor requires the use of a VGA \       XGA display to run the reference disk. After setting the configuration       for the ImageAccel controller, you can then remove the VGA \ XGA display       and use the Cornerstone monochrome monitor as the primary display. You       must leave the XGA controller in the computer.              UPDATE 8/11/1993       Cornerstone now has a VGA Terminator to make the XGA controller act like       a VGA       controller in Windows. Cornerstone also has a configuration Boot       diskette to make the Cornerstone ImageAccel controller the primary video       controller. To obtain the VGA Terminator connector and Boot diskette,       please contact Cornerstone Customer Support.              If you have any questions regarding the installation of ImageAccel video       controllers in PS/2 computers with XGA video controllers, please contact       the Cornerstone Customer Support at at the phone numbers below              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
