1. The NVIDIA Graphics Adapter
------------------------------------------

  Your computer is shipped with an NVIDIA Graphics
  Adapter and it's factory-installed device driver. 


2. INSTALLING THE NVIDIA VIDEO DRIVER
-------------------------------------

    NOTE: Before installing the NVIDIA video driver, please close all open
        application programs and disable any anti-virus software
        running on your computer until the driver installation is
        complete! In addition, if you already have an Nvidia driver installed,
        please uninstall the driver before installing another version of the
        driver.  


2.1 Menu-controlled Video Driver Installation
---------------------------------------------

  1. Follow the instructions on the NVIDIA .com Web site driver download page
     to locate the appropriate driver to download, based on your hardware and
     operating system.

  2. Click the driver download link.

  3. The license agreement dialog box appears.

  4. Click Accept if you accept the terms of the agreement, then either click Run
     to install the driver or save the file to your PC and run it later.

  5. Extract the zip files to a temporary folder on your PC.

  6. Open the NVIDIA driver installation .EXE file to launch the NVIDIA
     InstallShield Wizard.

  7. Follow the instructions in the NVIDIA InstallShield Wizard to complete the
     installation.
     

2.2 Unattended Video Driver Installation
----------------------------------------

  If you prefer to configure your system by command line editing you may
  install the video drivers and set the monitor configuration of your
  primary display as follows:

  1. Open a command prompt window by clicking on 'Start', 'Programs',
     'Accessories', 'Command Prompt'.

  2. Go to the directory which contains the NVIDIA device driver
     (e.g. C:\NVIDIA_DRVS)

  3. Enter the following command:

     SETUP -h:x -v:y -b:c -j:f -k -s

     These are the command line options:

     -h:x Resolution (horizontal)

     -v:y Resolution (vertical)

     -b:c Color Depth (in bits per pixel)

     -j:f Refresh rate (in Hz)

     -k    Force a reboot after a silent installation - must precede -s
           option in command for system to reboot.

     -s    Silent Installation - no installation messages displayed during
           installation.

     -n    No reboot upon silent installation. Used in conjunction with the
           -s option ("-n" must precede "-s", i.e. "setup.exe -n -s")

     Example: For a silent installation of the NVIDIA video drivers,
     configuring your monitor for 800x600 at 75 Hz, 16 bits per pixel,
     the command looks like this:

       setup -h:800 -v:600 -b:16 -j:75 -s

     Warning!
     Selecting a resolution or refresh rate that your monitor does not
     support can permanently damage the monitor.  Check the documentation
     of your monitor and make sure that the monitor supports the selected
     resolution and refresh rate.
