                                    SECTION I
                   DESCRIPTION OF PRESENTATION MANAGER DRIVER

        The  PM 800x600 16 color driver is compatible  with  PRESENTATION
        MANAGER  Version  1.1 and 1.2. To use this driver,  a  compatible
        monitor  capable of 800X600 resolution must be installed and  the
        video  card configured for that monitor. Consult your manual  for
        configuration instructions.

        After  correct  installation,  the  driver  will  at  boot   time
        automatically detect the monitor and initialize itself correctly.


                                   SECTION II
                            INSTALLATION OF PM DRIVER


        IMPORTANT:

        Before  you start with the installation of the driver, make  sure
        OS/2  and  Presentation  Manager  have  been  installed  and  are
        functional.

        To  install the driver, first you have to either boot the  system
        with  DOS  or disable the PRESENTATION MANAGER by  modifying  the
        OS/2's  CONFIG.SYS  file.  (see  DISABLE  PRESENTATION   MANAGER)
        Otherwise,  your DLL driver will not be copied  correctly.   Then
        follow  the Automatic Installation or the Manual Installation  to
        complete the installation process.


                             AUTOMATIC INSTALLATION
                             ----------------------


        Insert this disk into drive A: and type the following commands:

                A: <enter>
                CD\OS2 <enter>
                PMINST<enter>

        The installation program will guide you through the  installation
        of your system and copy the necessary files.

        After  the installation, reboot the system with OS/2.  Make  sure
        that  the  adapter has been previously set up  for  your  monitor
        using the VSETUP program which is on Disk #1.


                               MANUAL INSTALLATION
               README.PM                            Page 2


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


        The driver consists of two files:

                PM11-54B.DLL
                PM11-54B.SYS

        These two files are contained in this disk in the directory  OS2.
        Installation involves copying the files on to your OS/2 boot disk
        and modifying the CONFIG.SYS file. Follow these steps:


                1)  Copy PM11-54B.SYS file into C:\OS2 directory. EXAMPLE:

                      COPY A:\OS2\PM11-54B.SYS C:\OS2

                2)  Using a DOS text editor, insert the following line into
                    the  CONFIG.SYS  file in the root directory  of  your
                    boot disk:

                       DEVICE=C:\OS2\PM11-54B.SYS

                3)  Find the line beginning with LIBPATH in your CONFIG.SYS
                    file.

                4)  Replace the file DISPLAY.DLL in the first directory in
                    LIBPATH  with PM11-54B.DLL file. You may want to
                    rename  your DISPLAY.DLL file instead of  overwriting
                    it.


                EXAMPLE:

                Your CONFIG.SYS files contains the line:

                LIBPATH = C:\OS2\DLL;C:\MYDLL;

                and you find a file named DISPLAY.DLL in the C:\OS2\DLL
                directory.

                Type at the command prompt:

                COPY A:\OS2\PM11-54B.DLL C:\OS2\DLL\DISPLAY.DLL

                5)  Reboot your system.







                        DISABLE THE PRESENTATION MANAGER
                        --------------------------------
               README.PM                            Page 3



        We  recommend users to boot the system with DOS and  then  follow
        the Automatic or Manual Installation to complete the installation
        process.  However, if you cannot boot the system with DOS for any
        reason, you can disable the PRESENTATION MANAGER by modifying the
        CONFIG.SYS file as shown in the following steps.

                1)  Change the line

                  PROTSHELL=C:\OS2\PMSHELL.EXE C:\OS2\OS2.INI C:\OS2\CMD.EXE

                to

                  PROTSHELL=C:\OS2\CMD.EXE

                2)  Reboot the system.  Only the OS2 prompt [C:\] appears.

                3)  Follow the Automatic or Manual Installation to
                    complete the setup procedure.

                4)  After completing the installation change the line

                  PROTSHELL=C:\OS2\CMD.EXE

                back to

                  PROTSHELL=C:\OS2\PMSHELL.EXE C:\OS2\OS2.INI C:\OS2\CMD.EXE

                5)  Reboot the system.

                                 TROUBLESHOOTING


        If  your display in the graphics mode is not readable, your  card
        may  need  to  be configured for your current  monitor  (use  the
        VSETUP program supplied with this package).
