	Runing Grolier Multimedia Encylopedia in either a full or windowed
WIN-OS2 session I get a skewed graphic image in the menu screen.  I suspect
the Trident 8900c drivers under WIN-OS2,  as when I boot up in Dos and run
Windows I don't get the skewed graphic.

	I have tried using a full window WIN-OS2 session and going into 
Windows Setup,  change settings etc,  but when I click on restart Windows now
the WIN-OS2 session shuts down and the OS2 window list pops up but without
any trace of any Windows session anywhere (not in minimised either).

	I have looked in the help and it said use the OS/2 wsetup.exe not the
Windows 3.1 one,  but I couldn't find the OS/2 one.

	How do I change the WIN-OS2 video driver to a generic svga ?

	TIA
