AST 3G PRODUCTS AND OS/2
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Using the OS/2 operating system with AST's "3G PLUS" Video Card
|
|||
|
|
(long board) or AST's "3G PLUS II" Video Card (short board) may
|
|||
|
|
cause a snow like appearance on the computer monitor when the
|
|||
|
|
operating system initiates its power on sequence.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If the symptom is being experienced, the BIOS on the video
|
|||
|
|
adapter may not be compatible with OS/2. AST has upgraded the
|
|||
|
|
BIOS to revision "F" on the "3G PLUS" card and revision "C" on
|
|||
|
|
the "3G PLUS II" card to include support for OS/2.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If the "3G PLUS" card is being used, locate the integrated
|
|||
|
|
circuit at location U29 and ascertain that the revision level
|
|||
|
|
of the integrated circuit is revision "F" or higher.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If the "3G PLUS II" card is being used, locate the integrated
|
|||
|
|
circuit at location U10 and ascertain that the revision level
|
|||
|
|
of the integrated circuit is revision "C" or higher.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If the revision level of the video card is lower than the
|
|||
|
|
revision level allowed for OS/2 support, contact AST Product
|
|||
|
|
Support.
