We have got a legal copy of Microsoft Word 5.0 and want it 
to run on an AMSTRAD PC 1640. But, immediadly after starting Word, the screen
becomes confused. Even after deleting the file 'screen.vid' before running
Word, the screen is volatile. (And it cannot display any graphic
characters anymore, of course.)
Can anyone give me a hint, how to run Word with graphic character display
on AMSTRAD PC without the screen becoming confused?
