The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Windows versions 3.1, 3.11 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Setup program for Microsoft Windows versions 3.1 and 3.11 can be run in
monochrome mode for compatibility reasons.

The command-line switch to run Setup in monochrome mode is "/B". For
example, type the following at the MS-DOS command prompt:

  setup /b

The command-line Help message unclearly states that this switch sets up
Windows with monochrome display attributes.

Using the /B switch with Setup causes Setup to run in monochrome mode, but
has no effect on the actual Windows 3.1 display settings.

Additional query words: 3.10 setup.exe monochrome b/w 3.11 \* NoWin4
