IBM PC140 - Driver error when setting over 16 colors under Windows 3.11

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom :
IBM PC 100 Series 6260 systems preloaded with Microsoft Windows 3.11 may display a "driver not found" error when using the Windows Setup icon to "Change System Settings" to a video resolution containing greater than 16 colors.

A message appears informing the user that the driver is not on the hardfile and prompts the user to insert a diskette in drive A:. When the device driver diskette is inserted, resolutions above 16 colors still fail to load.

Problem Isolation Aids :
The driver installed on the system and the device driver diskette is Cirrus CL5436 video driver level V1.11.

This failure also occurs when the user tries to change the system settings using the SETUP command from the DOS prompt in the WINDOWS directory.

Fix :
Install Cirrus CL5436 Windows 3.11 video driver version 1.12F or higher.
