WINDOWS UPDATE AND WINDOWS DRIVER LIBRARY

=========================================

Windows 98 Second Edition includes drivers for most

display adapters. Microsoft regularly makes additional

and updated drivers available on the Internet through

Windows Update. Windows 98 Second Edition also includes

additional drivers in the Windows Driver Library on the

Windows 98 Second Edition CD. To obtain additional or

updated drivers:

*** If you have an Internet connection:

1. Click Start, and then click Windows Update.

2. Follow the instructions that appear on your screen.

*** If you do not have an Internet connection:

1. Click Start, and then click Help.

2. In Windows Help, click the Index tab.

3. Type "Download Library", and then press Display.

4. Follow the instructions that appear on your screen.

Microsoft updates the Windows Driver Library on the

Internet regularly with the newest drivers from

third-party manufacturers. These drivers are tested

for compatibility by Microsoft and then made

available for download. Windows Update makes these

drivers available automatically by detecting the

hardware on your system and offering you only

those drivers that are compatible with your system.

WINDOWS 95 UPGRADES

===================

Windows 98 Second Edition upgrades all Microsoft-

provided drivers from Windows 95 and DirectX releases.

Windows 98 Second Edition also upgrades certain

third-party Windows 95 drivers that might experience

problems running in Windows 98 Second Edition.

If your display card or system included display-specific

utilities (for example, extra display control panel

items, refresh rate utilities, or color matching

utilities), an upgrade to the provided Windows 98

Second Edition driver may cause the utilities to work

incorrectly. If Windows 98 Second Edition upgrades your

display driver and your display-specific utilities are

not working correctly, this is because the existing

third-party Windows 95 driver is incompatible with

Windows 98 Second Edition.

Third-party display drivers and utilities are often

very interdependent, so that if you remove one piece,

you will break the other. The display drivers included

with Windows 98 Second Edition are intended to be generic

drivers that provide stable support for standard Windows

APIs and features. Because each driver must support

a number of different configurations, it is impossible

to support every utility with one driver. Some features

that were formerly included in third-party utilities have

been integrated into Windows. If you still want the extra

features offered by your display adapter vendor, contact

your vendor to obtain an updated driver and software.

WINDOWS 95 DRIVERS CONVERTED TO VGA

===================================

Windows 98 Second Edition is compatible with Windows 95

display drivers. However, because the internal structure

and behavior of the operating system have changed since

Windows 95, some problems in existing Windows 95 drivers

might become apparent only in Windows 98 Second Edition.

If the Windows 98 Second Edition CD contains a driver for

your device, Windows 98 Second Edition automatically

upgrades known bad drivers (see Windows 95 Upgrades

section earlier in this document). If the Windows 98

Second Edition CD does not contain a driver for your

device, Windows 98 Second Edition converts the driver to

VGA to allow the system to start. In this case, you need

to obtain an updated driver, either by following the

procedure in the Windows Update or Windows Driver Library

section earlier in this document or by contacting your

display hardware manufacturer.

ADAPTER TYPE

=============

Windows 98 Second Edition Setup configures your adapter

type based on the controller it uses, for example, S3,

Cirrus Logic, or ATI. However, you may find a more exact

match for your adapter make and model by using the Update

Device Driver wizard.

In most cases, selecting a more precise adapter type

does not change the driver or its behavior in any way.

It only changes the name displayed in the Display

Properties dialog. If your system is working with the

display driver Windows 98 Second Edition automatically

installed, there's no need to make a change.

*** To choose a more specific adapter:

1. Start the Update Device Driver wizard (see

Changing device drivers in Windows Help).

2. Click Next.

3. Click Display a list of all of the drivers

in a specific location.

4. In the Models list, select your adapter.

5. Click Next, and then follow the instructions

that appear on your screen.

MONITOR TYPE

=============

If Windows 98 Second Edition does not contain a

driver for your monitor type, select one of the

standard monitor types instead. This selection will

not adversely affect the performance or quality of

the Windows 98 Second Edition display output.

REFRESH RATES

=============

To adjust the refresh rate in Windows 98 Second

Edition, click Start, point to Settings, and then

click Control Panel. Double-click Display. Click

Settings, and then click Advanced. Click Adapter,

and then select a refresh rate from the list.

You must select a monitor in order to set refresh

rates. If Monitor is set to [unknown monitor], no

custom refresh rates are available.

Refresh rates are affected by the capabilities of

both the display adapter and the monitor. Windows 98

Second Edition makes available all the refresh rates

within the combined capabilities of the display

adapter and the monitor.

DISPLAY PROBLEMS

================

*** If your display is visible but imaging incorrectly:

1. Right-click the desktop.

2. Click Properties.

3. In the Display Properties dialog box, click the

Settings tab.

4. Click Advanced, and then click Performance.

5. Move the Hardware acceleration slider one notch

to the left.

If the problem isn't corrected, repeat the above

procedure and move the slider farther to the left.

NOTE: Moving the Hardware acceleration slider to

the left disables some of the graphics acceleration

functions of your display adapter. If your display-related

problems are due to incompatibilities in the display

driver, this fixes them by using less of the

acceleration features in the driver.

*** If your display is blank or unreadable when

Windows starts:

1. Restart your computer.

2. Press and hold CTRL until the Microsoft

Windows 98 Second Edition Startup menu appears.

3. Select Safe mode.

Windows starts in VGA mode.

4. Right-click the desktop.

5. Click Properties.

6. In the Display Properties dialog box,

click Settings.

7. Click OK.

Windows notifies you that it will restart

in VGA mode.

8. Click Yes, and restart your computer.

When your computer restarts, it will be running

in VGA (640x480, 16-color) mode. You can now reset

your display settings by right-clicking the

desktop, clicking Properties, and then clicking

Settings. If the resolution you want to select is

not available, choose another resolution (anything

but 640x480, 16-color), and let Windows restart.

The full set of resolutions and color depths will

be available after you restart your computer.

NOTE: Your display can be blank for a number of

reasons, including incorrectly set refresh rates,

an incompatible display driver, an invalid mode,

etc. Because the display is not visible in these

cases, it is impossible to correct these problems

without restarting in Safe Mode. In Safe Mode,

Windows does not load your original display driver,

so none of the display settings are available for

you to change. Instead, Windows automatically

resets your display settings to the defaults

(640x480, 16-color, single monitor, default

refresh rate). Then, you can restart in normal

Windows mode and make corrections to your

display settings.

After restarting your computer in Safe Mode,

change the resolution to VGA. Not all display

modes may appear in the Display Properties Settings

dialog box. This is because when Windows 98 Second

Edition is running in VGA mode, the accelerated

display driver is not loaded, so Windows cannot

query it for available modes. Once you switch to

another mode, Windows prompts you to restart so it

can load the accelerated display driver. After the

second restart, Windows 98 Second Edition adds the

full mode list supported by your display hardware

to the Display Properties Settings dialog box.

DYNAMIC COLOR CHANGE

=======================

Although most programs allow you to dynamically

change color depth, some programs may not display

colors or other elements correctly after a color

change. To avoid this problem, change color depth

before you start the program. If you change color

depth while a program is running, you might need

to restart the program to ensure that the changed

setting works correctly.

ANIMATED CURSORS

================

If Windows 98 Second Edition is not using 32-bit

disk access, cursors are not animated. To determine

if you are using 32-bit disk access, click Start,

point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then

double-click System. In the System Properties

dialog box, click Performance.

IRQ CONFLICTS WITH PCI DISPLAY ADAPTERS

=======================================

If your PCI display adapter is configured by your

BIOS to use IRQ 15 and a functioning...
