Default 1200 tower pci busboard elbox lt4 carnt get gfx setup

ive installed a s3virge gfx card in the mediator LT4
the pciinfo amidos comand reports evythin ok
the problem im havin is geting the picasso96mode in prefs
to see any boards (atach settings to no boards)
ive been through the installs number of times and still no boards.?? ive managed to crash it when clicking on monitor
in devs .ive read another post were user was havin same problem only with a voodoo card and seams to have cured
it by missing step 3 in the mediator cd instructions
(copy driver to picasso96 libs) wich is totaly confusing
to me
"""this is what i read""

All works now and the Voodoo Card has been recognized by my Amiga.

The point is that step 3) of Elbox Voodoo and Picasso96 Installation document needs to be skipped!!!

Please install the Picasso96 graphic system following its
documentation. Choose Cybervison 64 3D as the graphic card.

After the Picasso96 installation, please start Picasso96 installation
once again and choose the "Update an installed version". Select only
"Monitorsettings" and choose the frequency supported by your monitor.

After successful installation you need to:

1. Find the CVision3D and CVision3D.info in the DEVS:Monitors
drawer, rename these files to Voodoo and Voodoo.info, respectively.

2. Change in the tool type window of Voodoo.icon:
BOARDTYPE = from CVision3D to Voodoo.

3. Copy the enclosed Voodoo.card driver to the Libs:Picasso96 drawer.

4. Click to the Voodoo icon (in Devs:Monitors drawer).

5. Start the Picasso96Mode program (in SYS:Prefs drawer) and select
Attach setting to Board0: Voodoo.
Exit Picasso96Mode by SAVE.

ive followed all instructions on mediator cd!
does any one know the easy way to get it workin??

im usin workbench 3.0 and 3.0 roms with other progs

in the meantime im trying
new install in other partishion dh1: and tri that?


:-?

Don't know if you are aware of this.
Might be useful for any problems in the future.
