Can anyone throw some light on this please.
I recently visited a student who had bought a shiny new Win95 system but who
was really a DOS/Hal screen reader user. I re-installed DOS6 for her by
booting from the DOS set-up floppy and allowing it to reformat the hard
disk.
The system works OK but exhibits some odd video effects. At the C: prompt
everything appears OK - white on black. In WP51 the (usual blue) screen
becomes a soft rainbow of colour the like of which I've never seen on a PC
(the colours aren't banded rather they're softy blended patches of colour.)
Everything continues to work properly including the screen reader and it
doesn't worry the student who has no useful sight but it is rather bizzare.
Any suggestions/solutions?
