INSTALLING VGA ADAPTER DRIVERS FOR GEM VERSION 2.2


The following instructions are applicable to users of GEM Version 2.2
and the VGA Adapter.

The enclosed GEM driver files require a new GEMSETUP.TXT file to be
installed in place of that which is on GEM Device Driver Diskette #1.
The drivers make full use of the extended graphics modes of the VGA
Adapter. Your VGA monitor must be capable of displaying these
resolutions in order to utilize this driver.

          Be sure that your VGA monitor can display
          800x600 and/or 1024x768-pixel resolution.
          Choosing a higher resolution than your
          monitor is capable of displaying will bring
          about unsatisfactory results.



Before installing GEM, perform the following steps:

          1) Make a DISKCOPY of GEM Device Driver Disk #1. This
             copy will be used in place of the original during
             installation.

          Example:      C:>DISKCOPY A: B:    or
                        C:>DISKCOPY A: A:

          2) Copy GEMSETUP.V22 from your VGA Adapter Driver directory
             to the newly-created copy of the GEM Device Driver Disk #1,
             as GEMSETUP.TXT.

          Example: C:>COPY C:\GEM&VP\GEMSETUP.V22 A:GEMSETUP.TXT

     After the GEM Device Driver Disk #1 is copied and prepared
     with the new GEMSETUP.TXT file, you can proceed with the
     installation.

Install GEM as per instructions, selecting

   VGA Adapter (800x600) 16-Color Mode;VGA 800  or
   VGA Adapter (1024x768) 16-Color Mode;VGA 1024

as your video adapter, whichever is appropriate for your hardware
configuration.

Complete the GEM installation as instructed.

You can now begin using GEM.
