I had the identical problem with a Toshiba v3100. I searched the win98 disc until I found an entry that stated that that was the way the program would start(16 color). I had to copy the driver for my video adapter and place it on floppy and tell the computer to use that driver instead of the suggested one(I ignored the warning that it was the wrong type). In my case I had to use the Intel(R) 810 chipset graphics driver which was on the win98 disc. Hope this helps someone. Eddie
