From DOS try:

cd\windows

setup

and check the settings for the display driver - you might need to select plain VGA (16 colours) until you can sort out the difficulty.

It could be that the installed driver was incorrect, or has become corrupted.

May be able to determine the video card make & model using Syschk (DOS) in order to locate & reinstall the driver.


Bleat at me no longer.
