Hi, I just installed an Intergraph 3D card on a Micron P200. Sometimes the desktop icon for "My Briefcase" appears as a yellow folder and sometimes it appears as the correct briefcase icon. Also some of the small icons next to programs from the Start menu have changed to something funky as well. Anyone seen this and know what's going on? Regards, John
>Anyone seen this and know what's going on? I have seen graphics glitches like this in Windows and DOS programs. The most common glitch I see is creepy crawly lines on the edges of cursors and status bars. I have reported some of the problems I have found and Intergraph has assigned one problem number. I have not heard any progress on this problems. I visit their web page from time to time and I am sad to say that there has not been a fix or a new bios level released in a while. I had to upgrade to the 74 level BIOS before they would listen to my problem reports. The 74 level BIOS had very little effect on any of the problems that I had. I have two identical machines with Intel Motherboards and identical Intergraph Reactor video cards. Both machines have the same problems. If I only had one machine, I would have already tried to return the Reactor (now Intense) video board because the glitches look like hardware problems. -- Best Wishes!!! Robert Huggins Raleigh, NC

Intergraph had great support the first month after the Reactor was released. I guess they figure they've got their money, because I too am disappointed that they have not written current a current Bios or fix for some of the problems that occur. Since installing the reactor, I have never been able to view ANY video in Need For Speed. I get no support from either Intergraph OR EA. Go Figure

Intergraph also states in the FAQ's on the Reactor page that a driver for NT4.0 is on the way... wonder if we will ever see another update. Seems like Intergraph wants to forget about the Reactor as a bad dream.

I have it on extremely good faith that this will be happening in the very near future. Nick ______________________________________________________________ #6 & #94 in the quest for the Cup!
