     I installed Simultask (Version 1.01 I think) on 386 running SVR 3.2.2.  
     When I try to bring up "dos" on a terminal (on console; not 
xterm),  I get  the error,
	"Configuration error - Press F1 to continue"

      After I hit F1,  dos comes up but the left half of the screen is
scrambled.  (I see a 
      lot of horizontal lines in the left half of the screen).  I am 
      using Cardinal VGA board (not VDC 600) and a Multiscan monitor.  

      Though I am able to run UNIX satisfatorily with this configration
(even X windows
       comes up with 640x480x16 colors resolution) I have not been very
successful in
       tracking down this problem with Simultask.  I looked into VP/ix
environment 
        guide but could not get any further.

       Could someone suggest possible reasons for this.  Any info on
this will be very
       much appreciated. Thanks.
