NOTE: We do not recommend installing this driver for use with mach64 GX,
CT or VT product families as it may not function correctly. 

If your ATI product came pre-installed in a complete system, you may
already have a special driver version installed (eg. IBM, AST, Gateway,
NEC, Sony).  ATI graphic processors are implemented on many 3rd party
products.  You should contact your system integrator for drivers
certified for use with your system, especially if the ATI chip is
incorporated on the mainboard or motherboard.

If you are unsure of which mach64 Product you own please see the section
Identifying Your ATI Product.
  
DO NOT USE WINDOWS 95 DRIVERS with Windows 3.X or Windows NT.

4.0     Identifying Your ATI Product

You will find information here which will assist you in identifying
current ATI mach64 and 3D RAGE products.

ATI mach64 and 3D RAGE products have a 'SHOW SYSTEM INFORMATION' option
in the MS DOS INSTALL program, on DISK #1 or your ATI INSTALLATION 
CD-ROM (e.g. D:\UTILITY), which will report the BIOS part number. The 
BIOS part number can also be found on a white sticker attached to the 
ROM chip on your ATI card. In most cases the first three digits of the 
BIOS part number will be 112 or 113. There is a direct relationship 
between the BIOS part number and the chip type (ASIC) used on the 
various ATI products.

If you have an ATI INSTALLATION CD-ROM version 3.0 or greater and are 
running Windows 95, you can run ATISETUP.EXE and then select TOOLS from 
the menu and then SYSTEM CHECK. This will report information about which 
ATI product you have, including the BIOS part number listed in ADAPTER 
TYPE.

The following list relates the BIOS part number to the chipset and also 
the bus type. 

	BIOS Part #	Graphics Processor	BUS 

	113-193XX-XXX	GX			ISA
	113-25XXX-XXX	GX	 		PCI
	113-26XXX-XXX	GX 			VLB
	113-27XXX-XXX	GX 			VLB
	112-28XXX-XXX	GX			ISA
