R. Germany Lines: 14 I've problems to open a DOS-Window in 386-enh-mode: When I am in 386-enh-mode and I dubbleclick the DOS-Icon, then a window comes up, but only a black screen is there and a blinking cursor. You can type commands, which are done, but your can see nothing (also not the typing). I use a VGA-Card (with TTL) and an EGA-Monitor. All setup is for EGA. Also when I exit windows and type a DIR-Command (to scroll the screen), the first screen is seen, but when scrolling begins, the screen darks and only a MODE CO80 Command lets see the text. Please mail help to ve@rrz.uni-koeln.de Thanks.
