1       Introduction

        This file explains how to install and uninstall POWERdraft
        for AutoCAD 2000.

1.1     How to determine the driver's version number

        There are several ways to get the version number of this
        driver.

1.1.1   Using the Windows Explorer

        Open the properties of the file dselsa15.dll in your driver
        directory with the Windows Explorer to read the version
        string.

1.1.2   Using the command 'PdVer'

        While AutoCAD is running with POWERdraft configured, you may
        type the command 'PdVer'.

1.1.3   Using POWERdraft Settings

        Open AutoCAD's Options dialog. The 'ELSA POWERdraft' tab
        holds the current driver version.

3       Installation/Uninstallation

3.1     Prerequisites

        Please check the following list of requirements to allow
        sucessful installation and usage of this driver.

        - an ELSA graphics controller supported by
          POWERdraft for AutoCAD 2000
          -> See the top of this README for a list of supported
             graphics controller/operating systems.
        - actual ELSA Windows display driver
        - AutoCAD 2000 already installed
        - write access to AutoCAD's main directory and to the Windows
          system directory

3.2     Procedure of Installation

        Please make sure AutoCAD 2000 is not running.

        * Installation from CD:
          Start CDSETUP.EXE in the root directory of your
          ELSA Product-CD.You can double click CDSETUP.EXE in the
          Windows Explorer.

        * Installation from floppy disk:
          The POWERdraft installation set consists of several floppy
          disks. Start SETUP.EXE from the first one. During
          installation you will be requested to insert the other
          disks.

        * Installation from a separate directory:
          The POWERdraft directory contains several subdirectories
          called DISK<n>. Start SETUP.EXE in subdirectory DISK1.

3.3     Uninstallation

        The install program records uninstall information in the
        chosen program folder.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

4       Configuration

        Setup will add the two icons
                'Configure POWERdraft'
        and
                'Configure Original Driver'
        to the program folder.
        Using these icons you can configure either POWERdraft or the
        original driver shipped with AutoCAD (Whip) as the AutoCAD's
        actual display driver. After Setup has completed
        successfully, POWERdraft is already configured.

        To reconfigure the original driver, click on the 'Configure
        Original Driver' icon, while AutoCAD is _not_ running. To do
        so for POWERdraft, click on the 'Configure POWERdraft' icon.

        If POWERdraft is configured, the ELSA POWERdraft logo will be
        shown at AutoCAD's startup time.
