Introduction
The Video-198PCI Series video accelerators are excellent
2D/3D multimedia video adapters for PCI local bus desktop
PCs’. Based on nVIDIA GeForce4 MX440 with AGP8X core
technology, built-in with 64MB DDR memory module and these
video cards will provide multiple display outputs onboard for
TV-Out (Analog and Digital) or Dual RGB out (Twin) as
options.
As the previously core technology from nVIDIA, the
GeForce4™ MX440 with AGP8X Graphics Processing Unit
(GPU) shakes up the gaming industry with its extremely
performance, unusual visual effects, and speedy frame ratesinjecting life into the artificial world of computer-generated
graphics.
The significant enhancement is the new high quality image
control. The nVIDIA GeForce4™MX GPU has added two more
rendering pipelines and the DirectX 8-compliant T&L unit into
its graphic engine, which enables the maximum flexibility and
high quality 4Xs mode control capabilities; gathered with the
data bus Double Data Rate
can ultimately enjoy the virtual environment of 3D scenes, and
ambiance textures appear photo-realistic and custom lighting
heightens at a highest resolution with astonishingly fast frame
refresh rate.
Another feature of the Video-198PCI Series is the video
accelerator, which integrates the HDVP (High Definition Video
Processor) and DVD (Digital Versa Display) for video playback
with higher definitions at greatly increased frame rates.
A leverage of the combination of hardware and software
technology, nVIDIA GeForce4™ MX GPU will provide many of
the new features and benefits you look for in your desktop
computing as well as the best performance, combining usual
quality and exceeding crisp resolution. With all of this, the
Video-198PCI Series video cards bring a new level of graphics
accomplishment and flexibility to the mainstream desktop PC
market!

Steps:
1. Turn OFF all powers to your system, including any
peripherals (printer, external drives, modem, etc.).
2. Disconnect the power cord and the monitor cable from the
back of the computer.
3. Unfasten the cover mounting screws on your system and
remove the system cover. Refer to your system user manual
for instructions to determine the location of the mounting
screws.
4. Remove the retaining screw that holds the slot cover in
place. Slide the slot cover out and put the screw aside (you
will need it to secure the adapter).
5. To install the adapter in PCI expansion slot, carefully line up
the gold-fingered edge connector on the adapter directly
above the expansion slot connector on the motherboard.
Then press the adapter into place, completely. Use the
(remaining) screw you removed to secure the adapterretaining bracket in place.
6. Replace the computer cover. Secure the cover with the
mounting screws you removed in Step 3.
You have now completed the installation of your new graphics adapter
on your system.
Upgrade Steps:
To add or change your video adapter to an existing
system, you may precede a few steps before you install
the new hardware and software (video display driver).
The following are some of the considerations:
1. To change a new adapter, please remove the
existing video driver, or replace it with a SVGA driver
from Windows®98/Me system before you remove
the existing hardware.
10
2. To add a new adapter, ensure the mainboard that
has available IRQ for new devices, and there is no
conflict between the others.
3. If you try adding this video adapter to an ALL-INONE mainboard (which video port built-in already),
then you must disable that port first. Otherwise, that
will be a problem for the new video adapter setup.
4. The driver installation for system upgrade is as the
same as below, if an error occurs when you proceed
with step 1, 2 or 3, please consult with your system’s
dealer or the existing hardware manufacturer
support.
