- Hi,
-
- I am having problems with my Trident 8900c SVGA card with Full Screen
- DOS sessions. Sometimes .... not all the time (but once it happens it
- will always happen until I reboot) .... when I switch to a Full Screen
- DOS session, the screen is all mucked up with flashing characters, strange
- ASCII characters, etc. I can clear this up by typing "mode 80,50" or
- "svga on" ... but some programs (like VPIC) will not function properly.
- I applied the recent trident patch (tr256fix.zip) which fixed some
- problems I was having with garbage appearing on the PM screen, but it
- still left the Full Screen DOS garbage problem alone. Any help or info
- on how to deal with this would be *GREATLY* appreciated. Thanks!
