[comp.windows.ms] Video7 and Win 3.0 & Can't exit Command.com

Hi Netters!

   I have three simple questions about Win 3.0
   
   
   1.  Is there any way to close a command.com window without choosing
   the terminate option from the system menu (pardon, but maybe it is not
   terminate, i only have the german version). I've tried nearly everething
   like typing 'exit' or 'quit' in the command.com window.
   
   2.  My video card is a Video Seven Fast Write VGA. If i try to run software
   that is not using standard video modes, you will see nothing under Windos.
   I guess it's that the extended video bios is not mentioned by Windows. Is
   there any Option in the system.ini file, to tell Windows to show these modes
   to. The programs i want to use is for example the vpic gif viewer or some
   self written programms running the 800x600x16 modes.
   
   3. Is there any GIF programm available under Win 3.0 supporting 256 colors.
