I use a monochrome monitor, and the same thing happens.  I thought it must be
issuing an ANSI sequence to set the colors to black-on-black or something.
But the CLS command restores the screen, too.  If it were the ANSI sequence
for black-on-black, the screen should just clear to all black-on-black.  So,
Borland must be issuing an int 10h directly?  If that were it, a change in
the driver would seem to make no difference.  I give up.
