Important Notes about MIRAGE AdJUST™ Program:

• MIRAGE AdJUST™ program in DOS/VGA: AdJUST™ program is a DOS based program, designed specifically for your MIRAGE video card and lets you change the DOS and VGA parameters for text and graphics modes. AdJUST™ is a TSR program which runs under DOS, WINDOWS 95 and WINDOWS 98. It can not be run under the Windows NT. However, whenever used as a utility program along with a "Flash BIOS" equipped MIRAGE video card such as Illusionist 3D, you may use the AdJUST™ program to manipulate the screen parameters and save these parameters permanently to video card's BIOS. This way you'll avoid using the TSR feature of the AdJUST™.
• To Change parameters for WINDOWS NT, first power up using a DOS disk bootable disk and then RUN the MIRAGE AdJUST™ program.

How to run the AdJUST™:

Change to directory where you have installed the AdJUST™: e.g. C:\mirage\illusion\ADJUST

Before attempting to use the AdJUST™ program, you'll need to load a utility file named: "monitor.exe" available on the same directory as the "adjust.exe" - This file must be run first and must be in the same directory where adjust.exe is located -

After loading the "monitor.exe", run the adjust.exe file by typing "adjust" and pressing the "Enter" key at the DOS prompt. After the AdJUST™ program loads, please read the on-screen information for detailed instructions.

AdJUST™ under the Windows 9x/NT/ME/2000/Linux:

You can use the MIRAGE AdJUST™ program to save all changes which you want to the card's Flash BIOS. This way all your changes will be in effect for Windows 95/98 and NT. Linux text mode will be effected by the flash BIOS program, but the graphics resolutions have to be changed inside the x windows using the Linux config parameters.

WARNING:

Please do not change the card's default Frequency, if you currently have a good picture on a fixed frequency monitor. Most fixed frequency monitors can not handle changes in the horizontal scanning frequency (kHz) and thus at the next boot, you may only see scrambles lines. Also, feeding a frequency beyond beyond a monitor's intended powerup frequency (kHz), may permanently damage the monitor's Horizontal section. You may use the following instructions however to change the card from the default settings and run it on a different fixed frequency or MultiSync monitor, at the next boot up. The Illusionist 3D card usually arrives, preset to power-up to match your monitor's frequency, assuming that we are aware of the monitor specs, before shipping the product.

How to setup your Illusionist 3D card:

If you need to change this power up frequency, so that the board boots in a different kHz at the next power up (For example, to be used with a different monitor), please follow these instructions:

WARNING: BEFORE UPDATING YOUR FLASH BIOS TO A NEW SCANNING FREQUENCY, CONSULT A MIRAGE TECHNICIAN FOR THE ACCURACY OF YOUR DATA FOR THE NEW MONITOR'S FREQUENCY SETUP.

WARNING: A "kHz" value should not be mistaken for the "Hz" which represents the monitor's refresh rate. For example, an 81 kHz ROM is intended to be used with a very high frequency monitor and may damage the monitors that can not handle such frequency.

More "Monitor Specific ROM"s may be later become available at this File Download area.

To change the BIOS automatically:

Note: You need to perform the following procedure from a computer system which is running on a DOS bootable disk from the systems copy the UNZIP files to the bootable diskette.  You shoulld have a total of five (5) files. Namely; Autoexec.bat, Beep.com, Flash.exe, J-xx.rom, & Readme1st.txt.  Pls. make sure to read the instructions in the readme file.
