   ArcaOS DOS window fix

   Hi everyone,   
      
   There's a simple fix for the DOS issue in ArcaOS.  It involves the DOS   
   subsystem video driver.   
      
   The fix is this: go into your CONFIG.SYS and look for this line:   
      
   DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VSVGA.SYS   
      
   and change it to this:   
      
   DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VSVGA.SYS /INT10TEXTGRFXSAFE   
      
   Reboot your computer and you shouldn't have any more issues with DOS   
   windows.   
      
   Like it was said, Arca is aware of this but this problem involves going   
   deeper than they're currently allowed into the OS/2 kernel so they are   
   trying to get permission from IBM to fix this.   
      
   Later,   
   Sean
