Operating System Requirements

NOTE: The AGP-V3800 series graphics cards require a motherboard with an AGP slot.

Windows 95 OSR2.0 with USB Support

Windows 95 OSR2.0 supports AGP cards, but to take advantage of all the AGP

features, you must use Windows 95 OSR2.0 and install the USB upgrade and then

install the VGARTD driver for the corresponding chipset on your motherboard. (see

III. Windows 95/98 Install VGARTD Driver).

To install Win95 OSR2.0 with USB support, you must have OSR2.0 installed al-

ready. Otherwise, first install OSR2.0 and then use the USB support update (you

must use the same update language of your Windows language). On the April 1997

MSDN Disc-1 “Windows 95, SDKs, and Tools”, OSR2.0 is found in “\OSR2” while

the USB support update is found in “\OSR2\USBSUPP”. To determine the installed

version of the operating system, look in the registry at:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Version

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\VersionNumber

OSR2.0 with USB has:

Version “Windows 95” and VersionNumber “4.03.1212” or “4.03.1214”.

Windows 98

Windows 98 supports full Direct3D and AGP features. If you are still using the beta

version of Windows 98 and you want to fully take advantage the Direct3D and AGP

features, you must upgrade your current Windows to the release version before in-

stalling the AGP display driver.

Windows 98 includes VGARTD for the major chipsets but it is recommended that

you install VGARTD from the AGP-V3800 Series CD to make sure that you have

the latest version of VGARTD.
