- My problem with modifying the bold video setting in NB3 persists.
- Nonetheless thanks to Odeda and Mervyn for their suggestions.
-
- I jiggered the brightness and contrast settings with small hope and no
- results. The hope was small because I had tried for black on grey, white on
- grey and flashing settings in my despair, and surely these should have shown
- wherever those knobs stood. I looked up--as per Mervyn's note--all default
- files and found no other default.sets. Just to be compulsive about it, I
- copied and deleted all default files but default.set. Nothing helped.
-
- In the course of all this, I loaded some of my old default files with other
- video settings and these took effect. My puzzlement remains, but it is
- obviously a problem I can live with. Still, I would welcome any further
- advice anyone has.
-
- Thanks again.
