Hello:

Mmmm....so i´m not the only one....
Well I don´t get a corrupted mouse cursor, but i do get the random white
spots all over the screen, especially when I drag windows. The problem
started when I upgraded my motherboard and porcessor from AMD 5x86 133 to
Pentium 2 233 PD440FX motherboard. I have tried, so far, a new video card,
another monitor, reinstalling windows 95 OSR2, new video drivers...so I
guess i´m gonna live with it until I go mad a shoot the freakin computer ;)
I have 32 meg EDO Ram, SiS 6202 2 Meg video card, 14" Monitor.
