I need some education. My son tried to load an old DOS mode game on my Windows 98 machine and it didn't work. However it left behind a legacy of the attempt. It has changed the DOS video "mode" (I assume) of the video card. Now when the computer initially boots, the BIOS logo and text is at such a large "font" that it goes completely off both sides of the monitor. I don't want to adjust the monitor for boot-up because I have to go back and re-adjust it when I get into windows. I remember back in DOS days having to use some commands to set the video "mode" to set the display to a normal 80 x 24 text screen (or to other color or EGA modes). How is this done under Windows 9x? Related to that do the video cards set a default scan rate before getting into Windows graphical mode or do they "remember" the setting last set in Windows? Thanks for any education form the old DOS guys and gals.
