Hi,

I have been through the same thing as you. I havn't got it working in a DOS =

window but it works great in full screen mode (can switch back and forth wi=
th =

Alt+Tab). I am also using a VESA graphics driver that enables me to use the=
 cad =

in much higher resolution than with the original PC graphics driver. Howeve=
r, =

this is only working with some graphics cards or, as I suspect, with the =

graphics driver for some cards (supporting the VESA standard).

The guy who made the VESA driver also supplied me with a modified version o=
f =

the CADINT.EXE file which, according to him, was fixed to work better with =

newer operating systems (windows).

I have also noticed that when I run some other programs that uses the seria=
l =

port before I start the CAD, the CAD won't start until I reboot the compute=
r. I =

havn't been able to fix that yet. =


But I really feel that I should change to another CAD system. The problem i=
s =

that I don't know which one and I never seem to find the time to evaluate t=
he =

different packages.
