The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The customer is unable to select a correct graphics screen driver for his Viking 2/91 monitor. The customer was sent the Additional Graphics Drivers disk. When the customer selected the Viking driver, the message "Invalid Graphics Driver" displayed. The customer tried various drivers and none worked. Solutions: The Viking 2/91 and the Viking 1 use the same WordPerfect graphics driver. The WP Viking 1 driver should work. Both the Viking 1 and the 2/91 require a proprietary card to be installed. WordPerfect will run fine with just the Viking card and monitor. To enable the Viking to make some non-WordPerfect related DOS calls, a normal video card (Hercules, EGA, CGA, VGA, etc.) is sometimes also installed into the machine. This may be the reason the user also has a VGA card. If the customer will check carefully, they should find that the VGA card is not hooked up to the Viking Monitor. The only way that the user can get normal VGA modes is if a VGA monitor is attached to the VGA card giving the system two monitors.
