               ASTIVGA.EXE ON THE PREMIUM II AND BRAVO SYSTEMS


PROBLEM:       The Premium II User's Manual (AST part number 001129-001
               revision X), refers to using a video utility called
               ASTIVGA.EXE.  When trying to access ASTIVGA.EXE, an error
               occurs indicating that this file is not found.  The problem is
               a result of an upgrade to the System Utilities disk for DOS
               5.0 support.

EFFECTED
SYSTEMS:       Premium II and BRAVO

RESOLUTION:    AST combined the ASTIVGA.EXE module with the ASTMENU.EXE
               module.  Unfortunately, the documentation does not reflect
               the  changes to the section regarding the proper use of the new
               ASTIVGA.EXE.  These additional commands were not added.
               However, the following mode instructions will enable specific
               mode commands to be entered from either the command line or from
               within a batch file.  These commands are not upper or lower case
               sensitive.
