I have just installed an ATI VGA Wonder (256K) in my PC.  I have 
been using Quick C 2.0 with the '/h' option to display 43 lines with 
my old EGA card.  Now (with the VGA card) when I use the '/h'
option, I see what appears to be the first 24 or 25 lines of what 
should be a 43 (or is it 50 with VGA?) line display but the 
bottom half of my display is completely black.  I am using an
NEC Multisync II.  Quick C documentation does say that the '/h' 
option works with VGA.

Other applications seem to be working fine.
Anyone have any ideas on what is going wrong here?
