System Compatibility
The card uses a 64-bit graphics accelerator chip designed for graphics programs such as Windows 95, Windows 3.1x and AutoCAD. The chip is backwards compatible with VGA. However, high-speed drivers have been provided which take advantage of the power of your new graphic/multimedia card.
Installing the Card
The installation is easy and straightforward. These installation instructions presume that you are familiar with your computer system. You may need to seek assistance from your dealer or consult your computer operations guide.
Warning!
Prevent static electric damage. Static charges can cause severe damage to microcircuits, but here are some easy ways to see that it doesn’t happen:
Hold the graphics card by its edges only. Don’t touch edge connectors or exposed circuitry.
Leave the graphics card in the anti-static protective bag until ready to install it in your computer.
If possible, ground your body when handling the card. The metal power supply housing is generally considered the best place to ground yourself.
Do not place the graphics card on a metal surface.
Make the least possible movement to avoid building up static electricity from your clothing, carpets and furniture.
Step1: With the power off, remove the computer cover, find an available PCI slot and remove the bracket and screw. This is a good time to check if you have any coresident graphics adapters built into the motherboard and disable them. If you do not disable them they will create a memory conflict with your graphic/multimedia card. This is also a good time to remove any old graphics cards from your computer.
- Remember which cables go to which connectors. You may want to label the cables and connectors before disconnecting them.
- Make sure you disable or remove any other video adapters installed in your system that may cause memory conflicts.
Step 2: Install the card firmly into its designated expansion card slot. Make sure to press it evenly and snugly into the slot. Once you are certain the card is installed properly in the slot, secure it with the bracket screw.
Step 3: Secure the computer cover and attach any previously removed cables. Use a standard IBM VGA DB-15 analog cable for the new graphic/multimedia card.

Extending Memory
Warning! Prevent static electric damage. Static charges can cause severe damage to microcircuits, but here are some easy ways to see that it doesn’t happen:
Hold the card and chips by the edges only. Don’t touch edge connectors or exposed circuitry.
Leave the card and the chips in the anti-static protective bag until ready to install them in your computer.
If possible, ground your body when handling the card. The metal power supply housing of your computer is generally considered the best place to ground yourself.
Do not place the cards on a metal surface.
Make the least possible movement to avoid building up static electricity from your clothing, carpets and furniture.
Warning! You must install either none, or all four memory upgrade chips. The board and your system will not function properly with a partially installed memory upgrade.
Step 1: Take the graphics card out of your computer, if it is already installed.
Step 2: Install the four memory upgrade chips to the designated sockets on the graphics card – refer to the illustration.
a) Make sure that pin 1 on the chip, marked with a dot on the beveled edge, connects to pin 1 of the socket, marked by a beveled corner (*).
b) Press the memory upgrade chips evenly into the sockets until they are fully seated.
Step 3: Install the graphics card with the memory extension into your computer.
Refer to Installing the Card.
Having Problems ?
Booting Problems
- No Video
- System hangs
- System beeps
Solutions
- Make sure the card is seated properly in its expansion slot and the monitor cable is securely fastened to the card.
- Check to see if your monitor is getting power. You should double check the electrical cable and the power switch.
- Make sure your monitor cable has the proper pin-out configuration. It should be able to work with a standard IBM VGA DB-15 analog graphics adapter.
- Check if there is another display adapter in your system, or if your system has builtin video on the motherboard. You should remove or disable it. Your dealer or system user guide may be able to assist you.
- Check other cards in your system that might be using the same addressing space, for example, network or modem cards.
- Disable any VIDEO ROM BIOS shadowing at location C000-C7FF in your PC’s CMOS setup. You may find the option located in the ‘Advanced CMOS Setup’.
- Try to install the card to a different PCI slot.
- Try the card in another machine. If the card works properly in another computer, there is a conflict between the system configuration and the card. If you have tried all above suggestions, please contact the Technical Support for additional help.
Note: The Stealth 3D 2000 card uses the following address areas.
I/O Address | 3B0-3DF |
Memory Address | A000-AFFF, B800-BFFF |
Video BIOS | C000-C7FF |
Video Problems
- Video Flicker
- Scrambled Video
- Screen Display is Small
- Monitor is not Listed
Solutions
- Video Flicker
Increase the vertical frequency for the resolution that you are using. Do not specify a frequency that exceeds your monitor´s frequency range. - Scrambled Video
It is most likely that the selected frequency is not supported by your monitor. Select an alternative frequency that is supported by your monitor. For information on what resolutions and frequencies your monitor can handle, refer to the monitor´s user manual or contact your monitor manufacturer. - Screen Display is Small
Use a lower vertical refresh rate. The selected vertical refresh rate may be too high for the monitor to support it. A reduced screen size may be the result
Note: For information on what vertical frequencies your monitor can handle, refer to the monitor´s user manual or contact your monitor manufacturer. - Monitor is not Listed
To set up the video card for your monitor you will need the vertical and horizontal frequencies along with the polarity settings for each resolution. Using the InControl Tools mode utility for Windows you can configure your monitor by selecting the User Defined Monitor option.
Note: For information on what vertical frequencies your monitor can handle, refer to the monitor´s user manual or contact your monitor manufacturer.
Difficulty Starting Windows and Other Applications
Solutions
- Check your CONFIG.SYS file for a memory manager like QEMM386, EMM386, or 386MAX. A memory manager may be mapping devices in the video area, particularly in the “A000” or “B000” page. All Diamond cards use the memory area “A000-C7FF” exclusively.
- The following examples will help you to reserve the required memory area for your Stealth 3D 2000 card. Optimize your memory use again after having modified your CONFIG.SYS file.
For using QEMM386 edit the following line in your CONFIG.SYS file DEVICE=C:\QEMM\QEMM386.SYS
add X=A000-C7FF, and for Stealth Option ST:F ST:M also add XST=C000
Example: DEVICE=C:\QEMM\QEMM386.SYS X=A000-C7FF XST=C000
In the SYSTEM.INI file, find the section that starts [386ENH]. Remove the line DEVICE=MONOUMB2 (“Rem” the line with a semicolon at the beginning).
For using 386MAX edit the following line in your CONFIG.SYS file DEVICE=C:\ 386MAX\386MAX.SYS add EXCLUDE=A000-C7FF
Example: DEVICE=C:\ 386MAX\386MAX.SYS EXCLUDE=A000-C7FF
In the 386MAX directory edit the file 386MAX.PRO, Place a semicolon (;) in front of the VGASWAP command.
Also check for further commands that may map memory areas conflicting with the video memory area A000-C7FF.
If this does not work, re-install 386MAX and select “NO” for the installation options
ROM SEARCH, MDA AREA, and VGASWAP. - For using EMM386 edit the following line in your CONFIG.SYS file DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE add X=A000-C7FF
You may need to remove HIGHSCAN
Example: DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=A000-C7FF
In the SYSTEM.INI file, find the section that starts [386ENH]. Edit the file and add the following statement: EMMExclude=A000-C7FF
If you have previously used MEMMAKER (DOS 6.x), run MEMMAKER again. - Try to disable the following settings, because of possible conflicts with the driver installation: Wallpaper, 32-bit disk access, or 32-bit file and access Network drivers Screen Saver.
- Disable any programs that are loading automatically when starting Windows, for example, from the STARTUP group, RUN or LOAD lines from the WIN.INI file. Remove all programs from the STARTUP group and place semicolons (;) before the ‘LOAD’ and ‘Run’ lines in the WIN.INI file.
General Protection Fault (GPF) in Windows
SolutionsFollow the steps below to determine the cause of the problem.
- Change your display driver to ‘Microsoft Standard VGA’ – not ‘VGA Version 3.0’
- If the problem still exists, an application may have been corrupted or has a conflict with Windows. Re-install the application and/or contact your application vendor for additional help.
- If the problem no longer exists, reset the display to the Stealth driver. Then edit your CONFIG.SYS file and “rem” all lines except of
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIGHMEM.SYS
FILES=XX
BUFFERS=XX
for example: rem DEVICE=C:\DOS\ANSI.SYS
Then edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and “rem” all lines except of the PATH= statement.
Start your system again.
- If the GPF does not show, check your CONFIG.SYS file for a proper memory exclusion. Then add the”rem”-lines back one at a time to identify the source of the problem.
- If the GPF still shows contact the Technical Support for additional help.Diamond
