Dear All,
    A graphic program 800x600 16-bit color works all right, except when
screensaver start to interrupt. Slightly before that, the dos program
display is blinking once or twice, then it was minimized. When I maximized
it, the display still showed moving objects but the mouse got hanged, and
its cursor couldn't be move nor did its click buttons worked. I have tried
under program properties:
1) setting initial environment to 4096;
2) check prevent dos program from detecting windows
Above are not working:
3) unchecked allow screen saver.(This is preventing the interruption and all
functions work)
My concern is why did the program fail  when screen saver interrupted. Was
that caused by  bugs, inefficient mouse algorithm, properties setting?

Thank You,

Patrick
