After seing your screen shot, I remember now I have seen the same troubles with Mathematica version 2 for Microsoft. Maybe you might try to check if all keys in your register are free from data coming from version 2. Anyway, a similar kind of troubles happens to me (version 3.0 and Microsoft NT4 SP3, with video card S3): the help browser window does not refresh correctly when this window has for some reasons been under another one; and I have to scroll it to refresh it. This does not happen all the times. Hope this helps, ----------------------------------------------- Jean-Marie THOMAS Conseil et Audit en Ingenierie de Calcul jmthomas@cybercable.tm.fr +33 (0)3 88 32 93 64 www.cybercable.tm.fr/~jmthomas ======================= -----Message d'origine----- De: Dwarf [SMTP:dwarf@wam.umd.edu] Date: lundi 26 janvier 1998 10:43 A: mathgroup@smc.vnet.net Objet: [mg10600] Diamond Video card problems? Hello again! I just wanted to ask for further suggestions about that problem I posted a while back. Since my description of the problem wasn't very clear, I've posted a screen shot of the aftermath on the web. If you go to http://www.wam.umd.edu/~dwarf/computer.htm there are links to both the screen shot and a sample notebook I can use to duplicate the problem, along with what I do to reproduce it. I called Wolfram tech support, but they couldn't reproduce it. I can reproduce it an any computer I've tried it on, and the common link is a Diamond Multimedia video card. Not necessarily the same card either. Today I downloaded the newest drivers I could find with no success. I have to say, if this means I have to go buy a new video card to use Mathematica I'll be *quite* unamused. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm *dying* to hear them. Thanks!
