1) Be sure to start Executor from a full-screen MSDOS prompt. The
fact that it switches to full screen once it starts isn't good enough.
2) There appears to be some problem using SVGA video modes on a bunch
of WinNT systems...but not ours :-(. I've added a "-vga" switch in
house that will only use standard VGA modes. For now the closest
you can come to that is "executor -bpp 1"; 640x480x1bpp will use
a plain VGA mode. That's worked for one NT user.
