The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: Using either the MOUSE.COM or the Microsoft Mouse (bus) driver for the bus mouse compatible mouse, the computer locked up when a menu was pulled down. When pulling down the menu, the blue color background on the screen turns white and washes out. Sometimes if I leave it alone (don't move a thing or hit any keys), then it will return to the shell. If the mouse is moved at all or if any other keys are pressed, it will lock the computer. When it goes out to Shell, the next program I go into locks anyway. The ATI graphics card is set up as an IBM VGA 16 color driver. Solutions: This can no longer be duplicated with this hardware on the 11-06-89 release date of WP 5.1. Although it was not intentionally corrected it is no longer a problem.
