Aptiva - Pink backgrounds/lines with MPEG viewer

Applicable to: United States

This document includes the fix for the pink line which may appear during MPEG playback. The pink border around the video is
due to the offset the graphics chip is using to place the video in the graphics window. In order to fix this problem, download
the updated Windows 95 MPEG driver (W95MPEG.EXE) .

Executing this file creates a bootable floppy diskette. Booting the system up off of this diskette will load the updated MPEG v1.21 drivers. This file improves MPEG play back quality over the original drivers. It also corrects errors caused by the previous MPEG Update that caused MM281 Errors and DCI Errors when playing preloaded MPEG CDs (Dreams of Flight, Silent Steel).
