Hi, we just got an AlphaServer2100 with a built-in ATI Mach64-GX ISA
graphics card. DU 3.2G that came with it worked fine.

I then proceeded to do a full install of DU4.0. After I installed it
and it started to configure itself, it told me something like a
graphics driver not found and asked me to type in the location of the
kit or press return. I had no idea what kit it was talking about so
I pressed return. Now, when I boot up DU4.0, The screen is stuck
at 640x480 with only 16 colors.

How can I fix this problem?

Also, I installed the OSF-BASE PAK that came with the system and it
says 'not enough units to load'. I don't know what units mean but
the system came with 2 PAK's, one says 400 units and the other says 100.
I tried installing one at a time and neither will get the error to
go away.

What can I do about it? Did DEC issue the wrong PAK's?



any help will be greatly appreciated!
