Description of this release
===========================
Matrox PowerDesk software includes a display driver and display
utilities. With this software, you can take full advantage of your
Matrox graphics hardware and you can access additional Matrox
display-related features.
Installation
============
To install Matrox PowerDesk, start the "setup" program included
with it, then follow the on-screen instructions.
The setup program will only install software if a Matrox graphics
card model supported by the setup program is installed in your
computer.
More information
================
For more information on Matrox PowerDesk, see the help file
included with it. For information specific to your Matrox
graphics card, see your Matrox or system manual.
Notes, problems, and limitations
================================
- DirectDraw, Direct3D and DirectVideo support
The DirectDraw driver we provide is compatible with DirectX 2
(or later) and includes Direct3D support. For our
DirectDraw/Direct3D driver to be called, and benefit from
hardware acceleration, Microsoft DirectX 2 (or later) MUST be
installed, even for programs originally made for DirectX 1.
Also, if a recent version of DirectX isn't installed, some Matrox
PowerDesk features may not be available.
We provide DirectX on the Matrox CD-ROM. The latest DirectX is
available from the Microsoft Web site, and is included with many
DirectX programs.
IMPORTANT: If the DirectX setup program prompts you to replace
the existing display drivers, click "No". Otherwise, the setup
program installs display drivers which are not as optimized as
the Matrox drivers and which do not support PowerDesk software.
Note that depending on the origin of your Microsoft DirectX
software, it may not include DirectVideo support. For faster
playback of Indeo and Cinepak AVI files, you should install
Microsoft DirectVideo support.
- Matrox bus mastering
This driver supports bus mastering. Bus mastering is a feature
that allows expansion cards to perform tasks at the same time as
your computer's CPU. If you have a fast Pentium computer (faster
than 166 MHz), the display performance of most programs is
improved when bus mastering is used.

166 MHz), the display performance of most programs is improved when
bus mastering is used.
To use bus mastering with 3D (DirectX) programs, your graphics card
needs an interrupt request (IRQ). Most computers automatically assign
an IRQ to graphics cards, but some do not. If your graphics card hasn't
been assigned an IRQ, programs that use Matrox bus mastering may not
work properly. For more information, see your Matrox or system manual.
