Multiplan: Rolling Screen and Snow on Sperry PC PSS ID Number: Q63707 Article last modified on 09-24-1990 PSS database name: D_MPlan

MS-DOS

Summary:

It has been reported that a rolling screen and snow appears when Multiplan version 4.00, 4.01, or 4.20 is run on a Sperry HT PC (8088-2) with a CGA or monochrome monitor.

To work around this problem, change the clock speed from 6 MHz to 4.77 MHz and setting switch 3 to off (down) on the back of the Sperry machine. (There is a bank of eight numbered switches.) Changing video drivers or running with no screen drivers have no effect on this problem.

Microsoft has not tested with this configuration, and therefore, cannot guarantee its results.
