Error: "Display Type Mismatch" With MS Window |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer was trying to select the 8514/A driver for their ATI Wonder Plus (+) card when they received the error message "Display Type Mismatch." The customer was using MS Windows 3.0 (Enhanced mode) and WordPerfect 5.1. Solutions: The customer added the ATI Wonder Plus (+) driver to the SYSTEM.INI file under both [Boot] and [386 Enhance] sections. Then, the customer could use Windows and WP fine under Real mode. The customer was not able to use Enhanced mode because of lack of memory in the computer. However, the customer then changed SMARTDRV.SYS to 1024 256, and they were able to use Enhanced mode, but still received the error message. Through testing, it seems the Windows driver is for the true ATI Wonder Plus (+) card, while WP is using the driver made for the Wonder card (not Wonder Plus). This is the reason the error message "Display Type Mismatch" appears in WP. |
