Hello,

I recently got a Comtrade 486DX50/EISA with a Fahrenheit 1280 (1MB) and a
MAGinnovision MX17F monitor.  I'm running MS-Windows 3.1 and the Fahrenheit
windows drivers version 2.21 (at least that is Orchid Setup's version).
Well, I want to use this beast in 1280x960x16 (or higher).  Well, this works
(I'm using it now) and works fine except on the far right of the screen, which
has problems with scrolling.  It appears after about (just guessing) 1024 on
the horizontal axis, applications do not scroll correctly.  If you take a
DOS window and set it on the left side, the left side (on the left of that
magic boundry) it scrolls fine.  On the right, it does not display anything, or
shows what was first brought up, or the background.  Basically, you can set
things over there, but real, live, scrolling applications are unusable.

Any thoughts?  I would sure like to use that area!

Thanks!
