Hi there,

My partner is having a little problem with the new 
WordPerfect 5.1. He's installed it on his Compaq DeskPro 286
(running DOS 3.3) which has a VGA display. For the most part
it works fine. However, when he tries to select "Print Function"
or "View Option" he gets the message:

Invalid Graphics Driver

Now he's gone through the installation procedure twice
and tells me it doesn't ask about his graphics driver at
all. Is there something he's doing wrong ?
