I use Windows 3.1 with an ATI Wonder XL. When windows starts up the logo
screen appears garbeled, but the desktop will appear fine.
The desktop works smoothly until I try a DOS program. If I start the
application in a windows (or a full screen and then exit) the desktop
will "jump" and the desktop will garble. I can still exit (Alt-F4 and Enter),
and restart windows.
I have 3.0 Drivers for the ATI, and I understood that the 3.1 SVGA driver
shoudl support the ATI.
I use QEMM 6.01, DOS 5.0 4DOS 4.0. The problem was the same with DR-DOS 6.0
and without QEMM.

Any Advice?
