Rendition®* V1000 Reference Drivers
Version: 2.1 beta2 - November 14th, 1997
These drivers are beta reference drivers. They are not supported
by Rendition, Inc. or by board manufacturers. They are provided
to users of Rendition based products on an "as is" basis,
without warranty. They may not be disassembled or reverse-engineered.
These drivers may not work on your system, or you may lose enhanced
functionality provided by your board manufacturer's drivers. Make
sure you retain a copy of your existing drivers before installing
these drivers.
Check with your board manufacturer to get updated, supported
drivers. The fixes present in these reference drivers should make
their way into your board manufacturers' next release, dated later
than November 14th 1997.

OpenGL Instructions
For any OpenGL game that you want to play (i.e., GLQuake), make
sure there is not a file called "Opengl32.dll" located in it's
directory. If there is, delete this file. Then copy the "veritegl.dll" include
in this zip to your game's directory, and rename it "opengl32.dll".
Trouble shooting
If for some reason you have any problems after installing
these drivers, try the following first.
On your CD, there is a program called "PHX2105.COM" (this
should be located in the same general vicinity as where you found
the drivers. Copy this file to your root directory on your C: drive.
Then, edit your "Autoexec.bat" and add the following line:
C:\PHX2105.COM
This will load the TSR version of our latest BIOS. If you wish
to disable having this load every time you start your PC, then "REM"
out the above line in your he above line in your "Autoexec.bat" file
(just add REM in front of the line and save).
