When I run my game in dos I can use up to 800X600 resolution.  It works really
good at 640X480.  I'm a using 256 color pallete.  

If I try to run it in win95 b at 640X480 it paints the screen once and then the
system locks up.

If I run it in a lower res (320X300) it works great in win95.

I'm double buffering.

Any one know why this might be.
