I get what I'd call "screen trash" as time wears on, but calling up a window over it usually fixes me up (temporarily). -Spenser

Sorry Guys but I've been using my ATI VGAwonder 512k in 800x600x16 color mode for as long as the driver has been out and I have no problems what so ever. I just recently changed the bios on the video card but even with the original one, I had no problems! Maybe conflicting with the rest of your configuration! Originally Windows itself seemed to have a conflict with my IDE drive and ATI VGAWONDER (that was the reason for the bios upgrade- it was alot cheaper than changing a 125MB hard drive!). Try to get a hold of the most recent bios used on these cards, It might solve your problem (it shouldn't be to expensive)!
