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

Problem

Symptoms: A user receives a blank black screen without a DOS prompt when he exits from WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS running under Windows 3.1. The user then has to reboot the computer to get back into Windows. Solutions: The user has a Trident 8900 Series Super VGA card with 1M of memory and has the TVGA 132x25 16 color text screen driver selected in WP. Auto-selecting the text screen driver corrected the problem. Another customer who had this problem with the Trident 132x25 text driver selected in WP entered the command MODE CO80 at DOS before entering WP to solve the problem. This can be used as a workaround. Write a complete STR for customers having this type of problem. Include the name and date of the text driver that causes the problem and whether the same thing happens when not running under Windows.
