SYMPTOMS
========
On IBM Carolina computers with an onboard S3 video adapter and an additional S3
765 video adapter, the onboard adapter is detected first.
Also, Windows NT 4.0 may not start under this configuration.
CAUSE
=====
This is a known issue with the IBM Carolina. IBM does not currently support the
S3 765 chip set on this computer.
RESOLUTION
==========
Please contact IBM for information regarding firmware updates.
Windows NT 4.0 has been tested on this computer with the S3 764, 864, and 964
chip sets.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The Carolina firmware contains a routine to place the S3 765 chip set into 764
compatibility mode. This effectively makes the chip set invisible to the ARC
hardware detection.
