Memory Differences Between 24/MC
and PC / AT
ISA: 3MB; 24 each 256KBx4 Looks like 28 pin ZIPPs
MCA: 3MB; 12 each 256KBx8
For a MC system, install MV24 in highest-level slot
available, in following order:
1st: 32-bit slot with Auxiliary Video
Extension
2nd:16-bit slot with Auxiliary Video
Extension
3rd: Standard 16-bit slot (VGA
passthrough cable needed)
The MultiView 24 Interface card is based on the 8514/A
graphics standard, which does not allow for two 8514/A
interfaces in the same system. Pseudo VGA interface
boards based on 8514/ A - like the ATI 85141U1tra,
Paradise 8514/A Plus, Diamond Stealth, and Fahrenheit
1280 - or boards based on the 8514/A or S3 graphics
chips cannot be used for VGA passthrough and must be
disabled, if they are integrated into the motherboard,
or removed from the system.
The MultiView 24/MC is compatible with VGA and XGA.
Resolutions: 1024x768 and 640x480
Color Modes: 16.8 million and 256 colors
Horizontal: 31.5KHz to 60KHz
Vertical: 43.5Hz to 75Hz
Pixel Clock: 76.8MHz maximum
Dual Monitor compatible with VGA interface
Single Monitor compatible with VGA or XGA video on
Micro Channel motherboard;
VGA interface for ISA/EISA with feature connector for
passthrough to MultiView 24

Win95 and NT
The MultiView 24 board
will not be updated beyond this driver version, nor will
it be supported under Windows 95 or Windows NT.
Windows 95 expects a user-accessible base MMIO address,
and since the MultiView 24 board predates these
requirements by several years and offers no MMIO
interface, it will not be possible to retrofit or
upgrade it to run under Windows 95.
MV24SET.EXE
MV24SET.EXE is the setup program for the
MultiView 24. It must be run in order to enable the
ROM and select its address, and to select a monitor type
and appropriate refresh rates. MV24SET will be run
automatically the first time INSTALL is run on a new
MultiView 24. If you wish to change your ROM address
or monitor type or refresh rate after the first time
installation to your hard disk, run MV24set.exe
MV24INIT.EXE
MV24INIT.EXE is an optional substitute for
the on-board ROM. It performs the same
initialization as the ROM does on power-up. This
program should only be installed if MV24SET has been run
and it has been determined that the on-board ROM must be
disabled due to unresolveable address conflicts. If
MV24INIT is used to replace the ROM, it must be run
every time the system is booted, preferably as part of
the AUTOEXEC.BAT. The INSTALL utility will
automatically add MV24INIT to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file if
you so choose. To install MV24INIT, run INSTALL
from the Utilities and Drivers disk, select MV24INIT,
and complete the installation according to the on-screen
instructions.
CLR24.EXE
CLR24.EXE is a screen clearing utility for
the MultiView 24 when it is used in a dual-screen
configuration (VGA and MultiView 24 connected to
separate monitors). If an application leaves a
graphics image on the MultiView 24 screen after exiting,
CLR24.EXE can be run to clear the image from the
MultiView 24 screen. To run this utility after
installation to your hard disk, run CLR24.exe
FPP1024.EXE
FPP1024.EXE is a utility for 1024x768 modes
when the MultiView 24 is connected to a Radius Full Page
Pivot display.
AdapterId 8066 Radius MultiView 24 MC
Card Enable
This allows you to disable the Radius
MultiView 24 card.
<Enabled>,
Disabled
EPROM Enable
This allows you to disable the EPROM of the
card. This is useful only if other adapters
conflict with the MultiView 24." [mem 0CA000h -
0CA7FFh]
<Enabled>,
Disabled"
Note that if you have disabled the ROM, you must
run MV24INIT.EXE, which is the RAM replacement for the
ROM, every time you boot your system.
