WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: When spell checking, the top half of the screen goes black, the bottom half goes blue. No text is displayed. The user hits F1 to cancel and it returns to the normal screen.

Also, during a spell check, any time a word beginning with the letter M which is not recognized by the speller is encountered, the screen will change to CGA mode. The top half of the screen appears black, and the bottom half of the screen appears blank, and the word cannot be edited or corrected. Solutions: The user should upgrade the Oaks Technology (OTI) VGA BIOS from the 2.08 or 2.10 to at least 2.13. One customer reported the /NF startup option "fixed" the problem, without upgrading the VGA BIOS. Customers can verify that they have an Oak Technology graphics card by rebooting the computer and pressing the Pause key as the system information appears. The screen should stop, allowing the user to read the screen. If they are using an Oak Technology card, something similar to O.T.I. VGA BIOS Ver. x.xx will appear. (Pressing the Space Bar and Enter will end the pause.)

Customers needing to obtain the updated card can contact the company from which they purchased the card or they can contact Oak Technologies Inc.
