 Highly Unlikely in my case, As i did a good amount of research putting

 It's very stable running Dos as well as Linux.

 tryed that, got exactly the same thing.
 Also ran it at 100mhz still get the same black screen.
 
 I can blindly cd to the allegro examples directory and run a ex??.exe
to
 get my screen back.
 And yes i made shure that my preferences were set correctly.
 
 Is there anybody out there thats running with a Matrox millenium 2 with
 rhide?
