Ah, yes, I asked the same question a few weeks ago on this list, and some kind soul responded with the correct answer (sorry, I can't remember his name, but I remember his answer). Rather than "vga=normal", try using this: video=vga16:off Don't know exactly why it works, but it works. regards, Robert -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
