I have a problem with RHIDE 1.49 hanging under Win 95 when I start it. The strange thing is that it always starts in Safe Mode without a problem. I have tried disabling any resident programs, tried every screen size/color combo available too. I tried starting RHIDE with a -B for VGA BIOS mode, and a -S for 16 bit video access instead of 32 bit access. If I switch to VGA monitor video in the Display properties, it seems to start up. The problem with VGA is that this is a NEC 5080X laptop with a NeoMagic 128XD video chipset. When RHIDE starts it seems to corrupt the video, and displays only the 2 line intro text in the DOS Window screen. The DOS Window title, and icon become corrupt. Starting the laptop in safe mode, or VGA, shrinks the screen to 6 inches by 4 inches. As you can imagine this is hard to read. I have the latest NeoMagic video drivers too. System specs: Processor; Pentium 233MMX Video; NeoMagic 128XD chipset Monitor; 1024x768 laptop display panel Memory; 80 MB Hard Drive; 4 GB( 2 2GB partitions) All FlashROM updates done to latest versions. microbunny -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Please post replies to Usenet.
