1.0     Introduction

The BBS Utility package provides the following functions:

	- It contains an option for configuring the mach64 hardware
	- It contains an option for testing the VGA, VESA and Accelerator
	  portion of the card
	- It contains an option to install the ATI mach64 utilities

It is important to note that the BBS Utility package does not support
mach64 driver installation.  For this reason we would recommend 
retaining your existing mach64 diskettes for driver installation or 
downloading the appropriate drivers from the ATI BBS, CompuServe forum 
or FTP site.

1) System Information

Detailed system information will be presented, together with any found 
system conflicts.
 
Contents of AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS will be shown, and an option to 
save to file or send to printer will be given.
 
It is recommended that this check is done first, prior to doing the
'Quick Setup'.
 

2) Quick Setup

Quick Setup will automatically initialize your card for the best 
possible configuration. 
  
You do, however, have the choice of selecting the monitor type, from 
the list of available monitors.  If the monitor you are currently using 
is not in the monitor list, you may  want to use the Custom Monitor 
option for best possible screen size and  position for each resolution 
your monitor supports.

3) Adapter Utilities Installation.
 
This option allows you to install the Video Adapter Utilities onto the 
hard drive.  The ATI utilities includes a DOS DPMS Terminate and Stay 
Resident (TSR) and a VESA TSR program for VESA compliant applications. 
For more information on either of these TSR please consult the 
appropriate README file.

Upon completion, you will be asked if you wish to set the path to the
directory containing the utilities.
 

4) Diagnostics

You can test the functionality of your graphics adapter using this 
option. The following diagnostics are performed to thoroughly test the 
VGA and/or the Accelerator portion of your graphics adapter.

  *  VGA Memory test
  *  VGA Text test
  *  VGA Standard graphics test
  *  Accelerator Diagnostics


5) Advanced Setup

This is designed for experienced users who wish to custom-tailor their 
card configuration for best possible performance. Changes will be saved 
in a non-volatile memory or a file, depending on the mach64 
configuration, and the card will be re-initialized.  Once saved, 
settings will remain unchanged until altered.
