Using DOS video utilities
For instructions on installing utilities, see “Configuring Video Software in
DOS,” earlier in this appendix.
VESA BIOS Extension
The VESA BIOS Extension (VBE) utility is a DOS TSR program called
M64VBE.COM. This program supports software running on VESA modes
using mach64 features. If your software and/or games conform to the VBE
standard, you should load M64VBE.COM before using your software.
To load the utility, change to the directory containing the utility and type the following:
M64VBE <Enter>
To display help, type:
M64VBE ? <Enter>
To unload the utility, type:
M64VBE U <Enter>
Refer to your DOS documentation for more information about TSR programs.
DPMS for DOS
DPMS—the Display Power Management Signaling system—is not supported
by the PC Compatibility Card.
