On 24-Jan-00, Michael M. Rye was heard muttering:

MMR> That's what happens here when selecting a gfx card screen mode.

MMR> You or anyone, any ideas on what's wrong and how to fix it ???

Ewwwww!!! I have the exact same setup (sub A1200 w/ A2000)... And it all
installed and worked flawlessly.

It sounds to me like you may have a bad video DRAM on your card. However,
before resorting to any rash measures, check to make sure your PVS Prefs
are set appropriately (this will depend on your system... Read the docs
for more details).
