I've got a 286 BB with Janus 2.1 on an unaccelerated A2000. When I run an IBM program and then exit, the BB Window reduces to a half width window. The window is positioned on the left side of the screen with the right half of the window contents displaying. I can correct the problem by using the pull down menu item to set the window to a full size window again but this is a nuisance. Does anyone have any suggestions on a solution to this? Thanks.

By a VGA card…..your CGA is seeing a video interupt that makes it go to a half window….it is a bug. Dave the Engineer Elite MicroComputers – Flying high on AutoPilot

I did just that!!! (the multisync was the killer$$$$$). But it does look great. Thanks for the reply

This is a known bug in PCWindow. It will be addressed the next time that the Janus software is updated. I have no information as to when that may be so please don't wait for it. Greg Greg Givler – CBMSER Sysop Commodore Product Assurance

I found my own solution (VGA with multisync monitor). I guess you can solve any problem if you throw enough money at it. Thanks for the reply.

Ronnie… Welcome to the latest Janus bug! It's easier to hit Rt-Amiga-F to reset it than to pull down the menu. Marion CROSSINGS Newsletter for the Bridgeboard, etc.

I followed the first advice, bit the bullet and bought a multisync monitor and VGA card, a great improvement (once I get a switchbox to end the cable switching). Thanks for the reply. – via Whap!
