MORE INFORMATION
================

To use the CalComp 2300 Series Drawing Boards with Windows 3.1, do the
following:

NOTE: The following procedure was supplied by CalComp technical support and has
not yet been fully researched or tested by Microsoft.

1. Determine the communications port to which the drawing board is connected.

2. Copy WIN-DRVX.DRV from the V1.1 Software Driver Set disks into the SYSTEM
   subdirectory under Windows, where x is 1 or 2.

   NOTE: WIN-DRVX.DRV is the communications driver that should be copied from the
   disks, depending on whether the drawing board is connected to COM1 or COM2.
   All subsequent references to WIN-DRVX.DRV should use the appropriate driver
   name.

3. Edit the [boot] section of the SYSTEM.INI file as follows:

   mouse.drv=win-drvx.drv

4. Edit the [boot.description] section of the SYSTEM.INI as follows (case and
   spacing sensitive):

   mouse.drv=CALMOUSE driver for Windows (R) 3.0 Feb.4 1991 COMx

   NOTE: COMx (where x is 1 or 2) refers to the COM port to which the Drawing
   Board is connected.
