Problem

Symptoms: The customer is using an HP VGA Monochrome 13" monitor with the HP VGA graphics card. When using Reveal Codes, the codes cannot be read when the cursor is placed on top of the code. Solutions: This problem will be fixed on the next release of the Additional Graphics Driver diskette after 4-12-90. The TEXTFIX.VRS is the driver created to correct this problem. This driver needs to be selected in Setup (Shift-F1), Display (#2), Text Screen Type (#3) for it to work.


One customer ran TEXTFIX.VRS then entering WP with the /MONO startup option to correct this problem.

Using the TEXTFIX.VRS driver also helped to correct a problem a customer was having with display while spell checking a document. A customer using a VGA monochrome monitor could not see the words that were highlighted during a spell check. The same problem occurred whenever blocking a word or text. Changing the color contrast on the monitor did not correct the problem. The problem was finally eliminated after installing the TEXTFIX.VRS file found on the Additional Graphics Driver disk. (Select this driver through Shift-F1, 2, 3).
