The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 6.0 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: Full screen display of DOS Products, WordPerfect or otherwise, running under Windows95 is corrupted. Display varies from garbage to not refreshing. Solutions: This seems to only happen with the Windows 95 program System Monitor running and displayed. If Sysmon.exe is minimized (on the Taskbar), there is no problem.
The Problems seems to reside in the Hardware Accelerator. Backing the setting off one (or more) notches from Full will correct this problem.
The steps are Start| Settings| Control Panel| System| Performance (Tab)| Graphics (Button)| Back the Hardware Accelerator setting one position. Press OK in the Advanced Graphics Settings dialog and Close on the System Properties dialog. The system will need to be restarted for the changes to take effect. Causes: This seems to affect all DOS products being run in full screen. Even the DOS prompt would not display properly. Slowing down the Graphics Hardware Accelerator fixes this problem.
