       ║ one of the Paradise extended video drivers for Windows 3.0 ║
       ╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝


step 1 - If you have already installed Windows 3.0 on your system, goto step
         2. You do NOT have to reinstall windows again to change the driver.

	 Otherwise, run 'setup' from the Microsoft Windows Disk 1 and follow
         the instructions from step 4 when System Information list is
         displayed.

step 2 - Go to the directory where you have installed Windows 3.0.

step 3 - Type 'setup' and press ENTER.

step 4 - Select the 'Display:' option from the System Information list using
         the UP and DOWN ARROW key and press ENTER.

step 5 - Scroll to the bottom of the list displayed using the DOWN ARROW key.

step 6 - Select 'Other' in the list and press ENTER. You will then be asked
         to insert the manufacturer's display driver disk.

step 7 - Put the Paradise VGA display driver disk in the drive you want to
         use. Type in the correct pathname for the display driver disk if
         the default path shown is wrong (i.e. 'A:\').

step 8 - Select the desired driver from the list defined on the disk and
         press ENTER. You may be asked to insert the "Paradise display driver
	 disk" again. If so, again type in the correct pathname (i.e. 'A:\')
         and press ENTER. When the driver has been configured you will
         return to the original configuration screen.
 
step 9 - Choose 'Accept configuration shown above' and press ENTER to execute
         the 'Complete Changes' process. Windows will return to DOS when the
         configuration has been completed.

========================== Installation Complete ============================

NOTE:
    1 - You can NOT run the 'Setup' within Windows itself.

    2 - The COLORS.EXE file is a windows program which will display the
        total colors available with the configured driver.

    3 - When installing Windows for the first time and electing to select
        one of the drivers provided on the Paradise display driver disk;
        Windows setup program at some time will prompt you with the following
        message:
            Setup needs the following disk

	without giving the name of the disk. It is in fact requesting the
	Paradise display driver disk. So, put the Paradise driver display
        disk in the drive, type the complete path and press ENTER.

    4 - To obtain a larger font with the 1024x768 drivers, you can edit
        the system.ini file. You must change the resolution in the [display]
        section for the 1024 driver. 
       for example, change from :
vga1024 =  A:vga1024.drv, "Paradise VGA 1024x768 16-color", "100,96,96"........
       to:
vga1024 =  A:vga1024.drv, "Paradise VGA 1024x768 16-color", "100,120,120"........
