It still could be a buggy driver.  Some cards don't support restoring from the same
mode to the same mode in a window.  That may not have been clear, I mean:  Restoring
from 80x25 to 80x25 might not work.  And I suspect (without any real evidence either
way), that RHIDE/SetEdit restores even if it is the same mode.
