Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Video Cards with the MACH64 chipset
(Available as of 10/25/94)
        ATI Graphics Pro Turbo
        ATI Graphics Xpression
        ATI WinTurbo (VRAM Based Pro Turbo)
        ATI WinBoost (DRAM Based Xpression)

SUMMARY:

1.  If the Mach64 card was not setup before installing OS/2
    Warp, select primary display as VGA when installing
    OS/2.  When you start the system into VGA, follow the
    General Setup procedures.

2.  If the Mach64 card replaces a previously installed card on a
    system, take the system back to VGA (640x480x16 using the VGA
    drivers (not 640x480x256 SVGA driver) before placing the
    Mach64 card in the system.  Restart the system, and follow
    the General Setup procedures

3.  If the Mach64 card was setup before installing OS/2 Warp
    for the system/monitor, you should not need to setup the
    card.  If you do have problems, follow the General Setup
    procedure.


4.  If you are replacing the monitor:
     a. Select 640x480x256 resolution from System icon.
     b. Shutdown the system.
     c. Turn the system off and replace the monitor.
     d. Restart the system.
     e. Follow the General Setup procedure,
        skipping the step to install video drivers. Instead
        remake the SVGADATA.PMI file.  This is documented on pg.
        240 of the Users Guide to OS/2 3.0.
