Removing the Windows 3.x SummaSoft
drivers
These steps will remove the SummaSoft Windows 3.x drivers from the computer. This will disable all tablet functionality.
A. Automatically removing the SummaSoft driver.
1. Start Windows 3.x.
2. Insert the Summagraphics driver diskette into your
computer.
3. In the Program Manager window type ALT-F, R(un),
A:\SETUP (or B:\SETUP), and then press Enter.
4. Select Remove SummaSoft drivers from the Select
Components window.
5. This process will remove any WINDOWS drivers
previously installed.
6. At the end of the removal procedure, the program
will then allow the choice of letting
SETUP reboot your system
for you, or allowing you to perform the
reboot manually.
7. The SummaSoft drivers are now removed.
Keyboard commands or another mouse must be used to
navigate
Windows at this point.
B. Manually removing the SummaSoft driver. (Optional)
This step can be used to verify that all drivers were removed using the previous step or as a backup method of removing the
drivers in case automatically removing the drivers did not work.
1. Boot the computer to a DOS prompt. (C:\>)
2. Type CD \WINDOWS [ENTER] to switch to the Windows
directory.
3. Type EDIT SYSTEM.INI [ENTER] to bring up the
SYSTEM.INI file in the blue DOS EDITOR screen.
4. Search for the following lines in each section and
take the appropriate Action:
Section &
Original line
Action
New line
--------------------
----------
-------------------
[boot]
mouse.drv=cursor.drv
Change to
mouse.drv=mouse.drv
drivers=...SUMMA...
Delete "SUMMA" drivers=......
[386Enh]
device=vsertd.386
Delete line
[drivers]
SUMMA=wtcyc.drv Delete line
[vsertd.386]
Delete section
SUMMA=x
Delete line
5. Select the ALT+F(ile) and E(x)it. Select Y(ES)
to SAVE.
6. At the DOS prompt, (C:\>), delete the following
files by typing these lines:
del c:\windows\wintab.ini
[ENTER]
del c:\windows\summagra.grp
[ENTER]
del c:\windows\system\wintab.dll
[ENTER]
del c:\windows\system\wtcyc.drv
[ENTER]
del c:\windows\system\wtpen.drv
[ENTER]
deltree c:\summa [ENTER] + "Y" + [ENTER]
(This line deletes the entire SUMMA
directory. If during the install a different name was chosen,
use that name
in place of "SUMMA".)
7. In order to have mouse control before re-entering
Windows, see the section, "Installing or
reinstalling a Windows
mouse driver.
8. Start Windows 3.x.
9. A "Group File Error" will indicate that
the group file, "C:\WINDOWS\SUMMAGRA.GRP"
wasn't found. Select NO
to not load this group in the future.
10. The SummaSoft drivers are now removed. Keyboard
commands or another mouse must be used to
navigate
Windows at this point.
C. Installing or reinstalling a Windows mouse driver. (Optional)
1. If you wish to attach a mouse to your computer after
removing the tablet driver, you must reinstall
a mouse driver
as follows:
2. From DOS, change to the directory containing your
Windows program files (usually C:\WINDOWS).
Type SETUP
to execute the Microsoft Windows Setup Program
OR
3. Execute Setup from Windows by typing ALT-F, R(un), C:\WINDOWS\SETUP.
4. In either case, Setup will display the configuration
of your computer. At this point the
display will probably
indicate that the installed mouse is whatever
type you had last installed, but this is incorrect; the
driver actually
needs to be reinstalled in order to be
properly activated upon Windows startup. Use the arrow
keys to select the
mouse definition line and press Enter.
5. From the list presented, select the mouse driver you
wish to install, even if it is the same as is
currently
displayed.
6. Press Enter to continue and follow whatever
directions Setup gives you.
7. Finally, "Accept" the configuration and
exit from Setup.
8. Before booting up Windows, make sure your mouse is
connected to your computer.
