I am having a problem running plain DOS super VGA programs in
Windows 3.0 386 enhanced mode. I have played with most of the settings
in the pif file to no avail. I am assuming that I must use exclusive
and full screen, and have set no background as well. I have tried several
combinations of "monitor ports" and "low graphics" or "high graphics"
etc, all to no avail: when I switch into 600x800x16 color mode,
it doesn't sync right, though it does sort of work, and some odd 
colors appear. When I exit back to Windows all is well.

This is a Dell 310 with 8 megs of memory and the Dell VGA16 card
(OEM from Video 7). I am using the Video 7 super vga 600x800 driver.

Thanks for any advice.
