Regarding this issue. I thought I would mention (not sure if I already
have) that Windows95 does not have these problems with exactly the
same drivers.
I've seen a post that says glide 2.53 works better than 2.54 but
neither of them work in '98 since I upgraded h/w. Never mind, I'll
just dual boot till I sort this problem out.
