[comp.windows.ms] Full screen & windowed DOS woes

I have a 386 and a 386sx, the same thing happens on
both. I usually run DOS as windowed (386 enhanced
of course). If I get an error reading a floppy
"Abort, Retry, Ignore" the window changes to full
screen AND the text is duplicated on the screen

AAbboorrtt,, RReettry (you get the picture)

I think this also happens if I change the settings
from windowed to full screen. If I start as full
screen I think I can change to windowed.

Why does this happen and what can I do to fix it.
