I've written a DOS SVGA app but when I run it under Win95 I have problems
with it being terminated!!!
If my program is running in the "foreground" and full screen under Win95
and some Win95 window (or menu or message) pops up into the foreground and
makes my app get minimized, then my app can no longer be restored and is
terminated.
This annoying problem happens everytime I press the Win95 button as Win95
pushes the Start menu into the foreground which causes the DOS SVGA app to
be minimized.

I found a workaround the Win95 button problem (doswinkey.exe from
Microsoft), but as for the rest, I turn to you...


Thanx,
