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 installing the AGP display driver. Windows 98 includes VGARTD for the major chipsets but it is recommended that you install VGARTD from the ASUS AGP-V6600/V6800 Series CD to make sure that you have the latest version of VGARTD (see 3.

DIME means Direct Memory Execute, which is accessed directly by most AGP chips (when VGARTD is installed) for complex texture-mapping operations. • For other notes or release information, see the README files in the installa- tion CD disc. • This Manual assumes that your CD-ROM disc drive is drive D: and that Windows is in C:\WINDOWS.

you install VGARTD from the ASUS AGP-V6600/V6800 Series CD to make sure
