Please provide a pointer, if one exists.
I recently installed Microsoft Exchange client on my HiNote CT475
laptop. The laptop is running Windows 95.
Since the install, my display is garbling text in KEAterm and most
other Win95 display boxes and buttons. Sometimes, it comes and goes,
but most of the time the garbled characters are there.
This laptop contains the "Chips & Technologies" Display Adapter.
I checked the driver files used by this adapter, but can't see that the
MS-EXCHANGE software install replaced a driver.
Are the Display Driver Files the source of my problem ?
Or is it something else ?
Again, if this is a known problem with the MS-EXCHANGE installation,
please provide a pointer.
Thanks.

*usually* that's not a good sign... the video controller or
video memory is likely going out to lunch. May or may not be
heat related. If you can boot a DOS floppy and still see
garbled funniness in apps/utilities there, that would tend to
prove it.

| 2932.2 | could we have more detail on `garble'? | FIEVEL::FILGATE | Bruce Filgate SHR3-2/W4 237-6452 | Thu May 22 1997 09:04 | 13 |
I'm chasing/isolating a video garble problem, and Exchange figures prominently in the changes before/after problem. My garble leaves the characters cells the correct size, but the pixels in the character are not the correct color nor in the correct position. Once the problem comes up, any character anywhere on the display that is correct, will be garbled if replaced/refreshed [If a screen is dragged over a windows to cover it, then removed so that Windows refreshes the previously hidden window, the refreshed screen is now also garbled.] Bruce | |||||
