Introduction
============

This guide contains the information you need to install our
Windows 95 drivers and tools for your Hercules product.



If You're Updating From An Earlier Release
==========================================

If you already have an earlier version of our Power Drive
Windows 95 driver installed, you should run the UnInstall
program located in the Hercules PowerTools program group
before continuing. Doing this removes the previous release
of software from your hard drive, as well as all old
references to the drivers and utilities in your configuration
files. The UnInstall program will also change your display
driver back to the standard VGA driver. After running the
UnInstall program, restart your computer. You will be asked
for the first diskette of the new Hercules software. Windows
95 will install the new driver. When asked to restart the
computer, select "No". You will now be ready to install this
new software for the Windows 95 desktop.



Running the SETUP Program
=========================

If you received this software release on diskettes, you'll find the
SETUP.EXE program on Disk 1 of our Windows 95 Driver and Utilities
diskettes -- the very same diskette that contains this README.TXT
file. If you've downloaded our software from one of our online
services, you'll find the SETUP.EXE in the archive -- it will be in
the same directory as is this README.TXT file.

To install the driver and utilities, just run our SETUP.EXE program.
If you run it from the task bar, make sure you type the entire path to
the directory that contains SETUP.EXE. Otherwise, you might
accidentally launch somebody else's setup program.

SETUP.EXE can install the Power Drive driver, our new Touch 95 and
Hercules Entertainment Center utilities, or both. To
automatically install everything, choose the "Typical" option when
using Setup's "wizard" installation interface. There's nothing more
to do!



What's New In This Release
==========================

1. Fixed system lock when scrolling in Netscape Navigator 4.0, 4.01, and 4.04.

2. Potential lockups in Internet Explorer 4.0 have been eliminated.

3. Stretching a child window off-screen no longer causes the desktop to shift position.


Known Limitations
=================

1. Textures don't appear correctly when using Direct3D preview in Caligari
TrueSpace 3.

2. Video Gamma and Chroma Control tabs have been removed from Display Properties.
Use the Desktop/Glide Control on the taskbar instead.

3. Master of Orion II exits to the desktop when the mouse pointer is moved off-
screen.

4. Some screen anomalies when playing full-screen AVIs.



Hercules is on an aggressive schedule to provide solutions to known
limitations whenever possible. If you encounter a problem, please
contact us to ensure that you are using the latest software.
