I'm having a little problem with AT&T 3.2.2 on my home system. My set-up is a 16 Mhz 386sx, 4 Meg ram, CGA board, AMI Bios dated 3/90, 40 Meg IDE Hard disk. What happens is that I occasionally get blank lines on the display when I scroll down a lot. I believe this is cause by something called Hardware scrolling. Why I believe this is that I used to run Minix, and there was a specific section in the document that described my problem and which function key I could hit so that I would get software scrolling. I don't think the card is at fault, I used to have the same problem under Minix with a Hercules compatible monochrome card. What can I do to correct this problem? Thanks in advance! -- Thomas V.

It is the card. I had a Tecmar GraphicsMaster. I put it into monochrome mode, got a monochrome monitor, and it works fine. Sorry for the wasted bandwidth. -- Thomas V.
