ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
This video corruption problem can be prevented by applying version 1.70d of the CL driver. However, the user must be careful to thoroughly update all .dll files. When upgrading to 1.70d, the user may twice get a window titled 'Version Conflict' warning that a file being copied is older than an exisiting file of the same name. The user is asked if they want to keep the newer file or not. The default is 'yes,' which prevents the
file on the 1.70d driver diskette from updating the previously installed file. The two files for which the user may be prompted are msvert.dll and msvcirt.dll.
