I've got a Trident 8900 Chipset in my VGA card and it
has a particularly strange
bug.  Sometimes when I power up, the screen boots without any color.  Everything is
black & white.  However, when I run a program with graphics, it comes out
in color fine.  Then maybe after a Ctrl-Alt-Del, the color comes back.  Some-
times it doesn't.  I've got a IBM 14" 8512 monitor.
