I am experiencing the dispersion of red pixels over my "animator pro" screen as I move the cursor…particularly when the operation calls for a "window" e.g. "move" or "cell…get". This has occured using 2 different display cards…"Video VGA" and "Willow GEO". I am using a DTK 486/25 w/Weitek co-processor, 8 Mb RAM, etc. I am about to switch I/O cards to try to fix the problem…has anyone else got a suggestion?…Thanks. Tag Grossman 73417,2322

Teodor, This problem is often caused by memory conflicts. That is, some other card, TSR or memory manager is tromping over the VGA memory addresses. Kevin Krell – Computer Support Associates
