Windows 3.1 Drivers - Maintenance Update
----------------------------------------

This patch is a maintenance upgrade to the Windows 3.1/3.11 Drivers 
for the GrafixStar 500 and the GrafixStar 700. 


Known problems that the updated drivers fix include -


	 Netscape Navigator Version 2.0 - The application tends to GPF, especially when           using Bookmarks.
 
         Experiencing GPFs when viewing Animated Flic files. 
 
         GPF problems when doing a Print Preview in Microsoft Word 6 with Bitmaps in the           document.
 
         Sticky Mouse - where the scroll bar button gets stuck down when scrolling through           documents in applications such as Microsoft Word 6. The probability of this           problem occurring is lessened with BUSThrottle being switched on, which puts a           throttle on the writes between the RAMDAC and the BUS.

          GrafixStar 500 and GrafixStar 700 can have BUSThrottle set to On by adding the           following line to the VideoLogic SVGA section of the SYSTEM.INI file:

	  BusThrottle=On


         Experiencing GPFs in VLS3986.DRV when going into Excel v5.0 in 256 colour modes.

         Corruption in Microsoft Word 6 documents when using inline drawings.
