I believe the problem is with the run command. It causes some really weird
flickering and ugly stuff. Take away that run and it will go away, but
then, the DOS screen will be there, hanging. Of course, I am just replying
thinking that I know what I am talking about. But, I read part of the reply
and thought that it was the same problem that I was having.
I hope this helps...
