- TROUBLE-SHOOTING:
- ======================
-
- 1. Problem due to incorrect Windows video driver.
- Symptoms: Picture looks like missing some colors or shows only 16 colors.
- Correction: Exit Windows. Log into Windows subdirectory and run SETUP.
- Move cursor bar to video driver and re-install video driver
- with the driver disks that come with your video card. Make
- sure choose the one with 256 colors.
-
- 2. Certain Parts of the image are too bright on too dark.
- Correction: Due to the hardware differences between different
- monitors and video cards, you may need to adjust the
- brightness and intensity of your monitor to get the
- best images.
-
- 3. Problem due to insufficient video memory and incorrect video card driver
- Symptoms: There's no picture on screen, but the hard disk sounds like
- it is retrieving something.
- Strange colors in pictures
- Correction: If you have another VGA card, try it to see if problem persists.
- Find a VGA card with more memory. Choose a different video driver to see
- if problem goes away.
-
- 4. WINDOWS does not boot up from the default menu in the CD-ROM.
- Correction: WINDOWS directory is not in the DOS path. Simply add
- WINDOWS in your DOS path in your AUTOEXEC.BAT.
-
- 5. I get "SHARING VIOLATION" when runing Clipart/ Font Viewer.
- CORRECTION: DOS version earlier than 6.22 will give you this error
- message. Simpy add SHARE in your AUTOEXEC.BAT:
- C:\DOS\SHARE
-
- 6. Font display on screen does not match the font name.
- Explanation: This may due to certain drivers and TSR programs
- interfere with the video driver. Memory manager
- like QEMM may also cause problem like this. Try
- boot up system with a vanilla CONFIG.SYS to eliminate
- the possible driver that cause the problem.
