Dwarf, I am also able to reproduce the problem and I have a Diamond video card. I have 3.0 under w95. When I was using 2.2 under Windows, again with a Diamond video card, I had similar problems. Wolfram advised me to switch to standard VGA, which worked fine, except for the poorer quality video. I subsequently got rid of the card when I got rid of the computer during an upgrade exercise. I was also doing a lot of work on a NeXT, which had excellent resolution, but no color, but worked fine for the work I was doing. Sherman C.
