Everything seems to function, but it's hideous and you can't >read the bottom of the WFC menu. Definitely use the .EXE version of BNU (not only will it probably solve this problem, but you'll have more control over your port(s) and buffers). Also, turn off "fast ansi" -- I seriously doubt you'll notice a difference in output speed (get out your stopwatch and try it *grin*), and using F- will force BNU to check with BIOS for screen writes, instead of just assuming it's okeigh to write whatever it wants wherever it wants whenever it wants however it wants...
