I use a monochrome monitor, and the same thing happens. I thought it must be
issuing an ANSI sequence to set the colors to black-on-black or something.
But the CLS command restores the screen, too. If it were the ANSI sequence
for black-on-black, the screen should just clear to all black-on-black. So,
Borland must be issuing an int 10h directly? If that were it, a change in
the driver would seem to make no difference. I give up.
