I am running Desqview 386 on a Zenith 386 with 2 megs of ram. The Versions that are running are 5.12/2.32. When I load DV, and then start Procomm Plus 2.0, everything runs fine, except when Procomm enters terminal mode. The entire screen becomes blue as normal, except for a small portion on the bottom row, where half of it remains black. I've havent seen this problem before in DV. If you need more information, feel free to write an email message. Steve

Strange - I see the same kind of problems when I use Microsoft Word 5.5 (set for "layout" mode - ie. graphical display rather than text). It seems that some of the screen management gets lost and I'll end up with parts of the screen not being highlighted in blue as I should. It doesn't affect the use of MS Word, but it does make for an ugly screen. --Marc -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Marc Shannon SYNFUL@DRYCAS.CLUB.CC.CMU.EDU | | CMU-TEK Person-In-Charge R602MS5U@VB.CC.CMU.EDU | | Carnegie-Mellon University SYNFUL@CMUTEK.CC.CMU.EDU | | (412) 268-6290 "I mean, really, what could possibly go wrong?" | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

I used to have this sort of problem with various programs, but after changing those setting, my "ugly screens" disappeared. -- Jack Pollard, private citizen jpollard@silver.ucs.indiana.edu --
