WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: When the customer lets WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS Auto-select her graphics screen type, it chooses the wrong driver. She is using a Boca VGA color graphics card. WP selects VGA monochrome. Solutions: Auto-select makes a best guess at what type of graphics card or display the user has. Most likely, the Boca card is in two-color mode. If the customer changes the mode by typing MODE CO80 at the DOS prompt, WP should Auto-select a 16 color driver. Another situation in which this could occur is when the graphics card is not smart enough to tell WP exactly what it is.
