Windows 3.x and other OSs that allow task switching may corrupt VGA font tables 2 - 7 during task switches. Only the two BIOS supported tables 0 and 1 are restored correctly under Windows 3.1 with some VGA drivers. You can {save:SaveFile} your current configuration prior to task switching and later {load:LoadFile} it if needed. Use 640 X 400 to eliminate one pixel gaps caused by standard 720 X 400 VGA text mode. Paging causes VGA screen page 0 to be copied between pages 1 and 2. This help smooth movement and eliminate flicker. If the desk top becomes too sluggish then you may want to turn off Paging. 8 color mode masks off the high bit of all attribute nibbles forcing colors 8 - 15 the be the same as 0 - 7. If 8 color mode is turned off then all 16 colors can be used. Screen Mode 谀哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪 溴 640 X 400 溴 Paging 溴 8 Colors 滥哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪哪 Select which VGA font table to use for the desk top.
