CHANGES IN THIS VERSION

you need VidSwitch! VidSwitch learns the settings for your
various drivers and allows a quick change from one resolution

INSTALLATION

Run INSTALL.EXE. All distribution files will be copied to the directory of your choice 
(.VBX and .DLL files will be placed in your Windows/System directory).


**UPGRADING**

If you are upgrading from version 1.3 or older, run the new version and delete all recorded video
modes. Then use Windows SETUP to switch to another mode. You may now go through the process 
of re-recording your video modes in VidSwitch. This process is necessary due to a bug in 
older versions that prevented the correct font information from being written to 
WIN.INI and sometimes resulted in incorrect font sizing.


BUGS, INCOMPATIBILITY

VidSwitch has been tested with all standard Windows video drivers. We cannot
guarantee compatibility with every video driver in circulation. If VidSwitch
causes problems with your display, simply reboot your machine and go to your
Windows directory in DOS and type SETUP. You can then change back to the previous
video driver that was current before you used VidSwitch. PLEASE let us know if 
you have any problems and what type of driver you have so that we can update 
VidSwitch as needed.
