Epson 386-25 User Manual

Your built-in VGA (video graphics array) display adapter

supports both standard VGA monitors and multi-frequency
monitors with analog connectors in non-interlaced mode. The

VGA adapter allows these monitors to operate in all standard
VGA modes without requiring any special device drivers.

However, if you want to use extended or super-extended VGA

modes, you can install one or more of the device drivers
provided on the Utility diskettes that came with your system.
These drivers allow you to use all of the capabilities of your
monitor and your built-in VGA display adapter.

The device drivers provide VGA features such as these:

❏ Resolutions of 800 

x 

600 or 1024 x 768 in graphics modes

with 16 colors

❏ Resolutions up to 640 

x 

480 in graphics modes with 256

colors

❏

132-column text mode in 16 colors

❏ Graphics cursor movement performed by the built-in VGA

hardware.

Note
To use graphic display drivers in 800 

x 

600 or 1024 x 768

resolutions, you must have a multi-frequency monitor capable
of displaying these resolutions. Standard VGA monitors are

not able to display them.
