I have installed an Orchid Pro II card in my 386 Dell 310 (8 megs,
enhanced 386 mode, using the 1024x768x256 color mode).


Sometimes when I move the mouse after a long idle period a little
square mouse dropping will appear where it was, often with information
from a nearby area of the screen in it. The correct information for that area 
of the screen can be restored only by moving the afflicted area all the
way off the screen, letting Windows redraw, and then moving it back, letting
Windows redraw yet again.

Has anybody else noticed this?

Any fixes?
