option displays the current CLMode settings.
WINMODE
The WinMode utility configures your graphics system for Windows 3.X in either DOS or original
OS/2 2.1. It allows you to change the monitor refresh rates, resolution, number of available colors,
large or normal size fonts and font cache size.
After new options have been selected, you can either restart Windows, in which case the new
resolution takes effect immediately, or continue working in the current resolution, in which case
the new resolution takes effect the next time Windows is started. In some configurations the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file needs to be modified to make the changes permanent.
WinMode assumes that the Windows drivers have been correctly installed and configured using
the installation utility provided on the Windows 3.X Drivers & Utilities diskette.
For installation instructions, see the section on Windows 3.X drivers in this appendix.
Using WinMode
WinMode is run by selecting its icon. The icon is located in the group you specified during the
installation process. When WinMode is started the screen may become blank for up to two seconds
while WinMode attempts to discover the capabilities of the monitor. If it can determine the monitor’s
capabilities, you will see only one choice besides the Other Brand and Other Model choices in
the Monitor Brand and Monitor Model drop-down boxes.
Monitor Brand
Select the brand of your monitor from the list provided in the drop-down box. This changes the list
of monitors in the Monitor Model drop-down box to display only the models available for the
selected brand. If your monitor brand is not listed, select Other Brand.
If your graphics adapter and monitor both support VESA Display Data Channel, this is the default
choice. This means that WinMode was able to identify the monitor and knows what resolutions
and refresh rates are available for the monitor.
Monitor Model
Select the current model from the list first presented. If your monitor is not listed, select Other
Monitor. If your graphics adapter and monitor both support VESA Display Data Channel, this is
the default choice. This means that WinMode was able to identify the monitor and knows what
resolutions and refresh rates are available for the monitor.
