Warning!

Prevent static electric damage. Static charges can cause severe damage to microcircuits, but here are some easy ways to
see that it doesn't happen:

Hold the graphics card by its edges only. Don't touch edge connectors or exposed circuitry.
Leave the card in the anti-static protective bag until ready to install it in your computer.
If possible, ground your body when handling the card. A metal power supply in your computer is generally considered
the best place to ground yourself.
Do not place the graphics card on a metal surface.
Make as few movements as possible to avoid building up static electricity from your clothing, carpets and furniture.

Installation procedure

Step1: With the power off, remove the computer cover, find an available PCI slot and remove the bracket and screw.
This is a good time to check if you have any co-resident graphics adapters built into the motherboard and disable them. If
you do not disable them they will create a memory conflict with your graphic/multimedia card. This is also a good time
to remove any old graphics cards from your computer.

Remember which cables go to which connectors. You may want to label the cables and connectors before
disconnecting them.
Make sure you disable or remove any other video adapters installed in your system that may cause memory
conflicts.

Step 2: Install the card firmly into its designated expansion card slot. Make sure to press it evenly and snugly into the
slot. Once you are certain the card is installed properly in the slot, secure it with the bracket screw.

Step 3: Secure the computer cover and attach any previously removed cables. Use a standard IBM VGA DB-15 analog
cable for the new graphic/multimedia card.

Step 4 (only for boards with TV-output): Connect TV with graphics card. To do so you need a cable which fits into the
Composite or S-VHS output of the graphics card on one side and the TV video input connector on the other side. Please
ask your TV dealer for any more specific information about the cable. The board comes without the cable. The system
detects whether a TV is plugged in. The monitor does not necessarily have to be plugged in.

Resolving Interrupt Conflicts

To support the special graphics processor on the Stealth 3D 2000 Pro the system BIOS will automatically assign a system
interrupt to the PCI slot where the Stealth 3D 2000 Pro is installed. However, there may be problems if a system interrupt
is used for more than one device. In case of problems:

Check your computer's BIOS SETUP for the interrupt assignments. Refer to your PC manual for information on its BIOS
SETUP and if possible

change the interrupt assignment for the Stealth 3D 2000 Pro, or
change the interrupt assignment for any other device sharing the interrupt with the Stealth 3D 2000 Pro

Try to manually change the interrupt assignment for any other device sharing the interrupt with the Stealth 3D 2000 Pro.

Check the documentation supplied with these devices for information on hardware switches for interrupt setting.

After Installing the Board

If you have correctly installed the board, the DOS messages will then appear on your monitor when the boot procedure is
finished.

After successful installation of the board please continue with software installation.

If your system does NOT boot as it should,

check again to see that the installation instructions were properly followed,
check for interrupt conflicts - see Resolving Interrupt Conflicts, or
refer to Fast Track to Technical Support.

Video Problems

Video Flicker
Scrambled Video
Screen Display is Small
Monitor is not Listed

Solutions

Video Flicker

Increase the vertical frequency for the resolution that you are using. Do not specify a frequency that exceeds your
monitor´s frequency range.

Scrambled Video

It is most likely that the selected frequency is not supported by your monitor. Select an alternative frequency that is
supported by your monitor. For information on what resolutions and frequencies your monitor can handle, refer to the
monitor´s user manual or contact your monitor manufacturer.

Screen Display is Small

Use a lower vertical refresh rate. The selected vertical refresh rate may be too high for the monitor to support it. A
reduced screen size may be the result

Note: For information on what vertical frequencies your monitor can handle, refer to the monitor´s user manual or
contact your monitor manufacturer.

Monitor is not Listed

To set up the video card for your monitor you will need the vertical and horizontal frequencies along with the polarity
settings for each resolution. Using the InControl Tools mode utility for Windows you can configure your monitor by
selecting the User Defined Monitor option.

Note: For information on what vertical frequencies your monitor can handle, refer to the monitor´s user manual or
contact your monitor manufacturer.

Difficulty Starting Windows and Other Applications

Solutions

Check your CONFIG.SYS file for a memory manager like QEMM386, EMM386, or 386MAX. A memory
manager may be mapping devices in the video area, particularly in the "A000” or "B000” page. All Diamond cards
use the memory area "A000-C7FF” exclusively.
The following examples will help you to reserve the required memory area for your Stealth 3D 2000 PRO card.
Optimize your memory use again after having modified your CONFIG.SYS file.

For using QEMM386 edit the following line in your CONFIG.SYS file DEVICE=C:\QEMM\QEMM386.SYS

add X=A000-C7FF, and for Stealth Option ST:F ST:M also add XST=C000

Example: DEVICE=C:\QEMM\QEMM386.SYS X=A000-C7FF XST=C000

In the SYSTEM.INI file, find the section that starts [386ENH]. Remove the line

DEVICE=MONOUMB2 ("Rem” the line with a semicolon at the beginning).

For using 386MAX edit the following line in your CONFIG.SYS file DEVICE=C:\ 386MAX\386MAX.SYS

add EXCLUDE=A000-C7FF

Example: DEVICE=C:\ 386MAX\386MAX.SYS EXCLUDE=A000-C7FF

In the 386MAX directory edit the file 386MAX.PRO, Place a semicolon (;) in front of the VGASWAP command.

Also check for further commands that may map memory areas conflicting with the video memory area A000-C7FF.

If this does not work, re-install 386MAX and select "NO” for the installation options ROM SEARCH, MDA AREA, and
VGASWAP.

For using EMM386 edit the following line in your CONFIG.SYS file DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE

add X=A000-C7FF

You may need to remove HIGHSCAN

Example: DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=A000-C7FF

In the SYSTEM.INI file, find the section that starts [386ENH]. Edit the file and add the following statement:
EMMExclude=A000-C7FF

If you have previously used MEMMAKER (DOS 6.x), run MEMMAKER again.

Try to disable the following settings, because of possible conflicts with the driver installation: Wallpaper, 32-bit
disk access, or 32-bit file and access Network drivers Screen Saver.

Disable any programs that are loading automatically when starting Windows, for example, from the STARTUP
group, RUN or LOAD lines from the WIN.INI file. Remove all programs from the STARTUP group and place
semicolons (;) before the 'LOAD' and 'Run' lines in the WIN.INI file.

General Protection Fault (GPF) in Windows

Solutions

Follow the steps below to determine the cause of the problem.

Change your display driver to 'Microsoft Standard VGA' - not 'VGA Version 3.0'
If the problem still exists, an application may have been corrupted or has a conflict with Windows. Re-install the
application and/or contact your application vendor for additional help.
If the problem no longer exists, reset the display to the Stealth driver. Then edit your CONFIG.SYS file and "rem”
all lines except of

DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIGHMEM.SYS

FILES=XX

BUFFERS=XX

for example: rem DEVICE=C:\DOS\ANSI.SYS

Then edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and "rem” all lines except of the PATH= statement.

Start your system again.

If the GPF does not show, check your CONFIG.SYS file for a proper memory exclusion. Then add the”rem”-lines
back one at a time to identify the source of the problem.
If the GPF still shows contact the Technical Support for additional help.
