- When I bought my computer, the dealer installed the SS24x, and put the 'Fixup'
- command in the autoexec.bat. The SS24x manual doesn't mention it at all,
- does anyone know what it is supposed to do? I don't use it anymore, sometimes
- when I tried to display a GIF, it would display only the top 1/5 of the screen,
- with the rest of the picture displayed 'on top of it' (difficult to explain :-)
- This even happened to the SS24X-intro-picture, after running the install-
- program. (It still happens occaisionally when displaying a picture in a low
- resolution (using VPIC) )
-
- Also, dos anyone know a FTP-site with the latest drivers? (Please tell me the
- exact location and filename, since I have to get them through FTP-mail..)

- Han.
