INSTALLATION: ------------- This video accelerator driver is compatible with OS/2 2.1x and 3.0. Do not install it over any display driver other than VGA. 1.

Open the "OS/2 System" folder. 7. Open the "System Setup" folder. 8. Open the "Display Driver Install" (DSPINSTL) object. When the Display Driver Install window appears, chose primary display, then select "OK". The Primary Display Adapter type window will then appear with a list of drivers.
