Every time I run vpic to view GIF files and exit, the color scheme becomes really messed up. If I try to run any character based programs(such as Word Perfect or Norton Commander), the color is really faded(???) and everything becomes difficult if not impossible to read. It's hard to explain. The only way to fix this is to reboot. I don't know if the problem is from program or the video board. I never had the problem before... For your information, my computer is 80386-25 clone, with ATI VGA Wonder with 512K and Seiko 1430 monitor. BTW the mother board is from AMI. Thanks in advance for your reponse. Please email since I don't have time to read every single message. Thanks. kslee@athena.mit.edu
