I have just upgraded my ET4000 from 1MB to 2MB. I installed the 
1024 x 768 x 32768 driver and found that when I tried to run
minimised DOS applications such as MS-DOS prompt and XTGOLD
that all of Windows would be instantly dumped. I would get a DOS
prompt and my normal 8MB memory. Windows just disappeared! Has
anyone else had this problem, and what is the solution?

Thanks,


David Maddison
