DIGITAL Personal Workstation 350i/400i README.TXT       Created on    09-June-1998
								


This README.TXT covers information that was unavailable when the 
DIGITAL Personal Workstation (aka: DPW) documentation was written.

1) Power On/Off Switch 

  IMPORTANT: To turn on your workstation, momentarily press the Power 
  On/Off switch. The workstation then boots normally. To turn off 
  your workstation, fully depress the Power On/Off  switch for four (4) 
  seconds. Your workstation then turns off normally.

2) Drivers
   
   Permedia 2, 3DLabs driver will work only when the SP3 or higher is loaded onto the system. 
   This is important when you install NT4.0 from CDROM. Otherwise the system will come up VGA     
   even though the user loaded the video driver correctly.  Be sure to always load SP3 before 
   updating the video driver.
  
   Some drivers from the NT4.0 CDROM will produce undesirable effects on the DIGITAL 
   DPW. These onboard devices should be loaded with the drivers supplied by DIGITAL on 
   the System Software CD.  Always check our Website for the latest drivers and BIOS, 
   please visit us at :

3) Memory Guidelines

   Registered and unbuffered memory should not be mixed in a system.


4) High End Graphics (Powerstorm 4D51T and 4D51T GFX)

   If you purchased a Digital Powerstorm 4D51T graphics module, you should install this option
   into a primary PCI slot (2nd slot directly below the power supply). An exception to this is if
   you have purchased the Digital Powerstorm 4D51T GFX module. This module is part of a set,
   and the set should be placed in the two bottom slots in the box.

      5) Multi-head support with Powerstorm 4D10T

          When using the Powerstorm 4D10T module with multi-heads, you should use driver 
          version 2.0B (or greater). If you do not have this driver, please go to our web page listed
          above (and look under firmware/drivers, then Graphics drivers). You should always load 
          the 4D10T driver BEFORE installing the PCI card. 

6) Audio Info

   The Crystal sound driver is set to enable the PC speaker.  To disable the PC speaker follow 
   the links to "start\programs\accessories\multimedia\volume control\options\advanced"and 
   insure that the mute box is checked.  The PC speaker will now be disabled.

   **  Plugging in headphones or speakers into the workstation will NOT disable the PC Speaker
