5.50 6.00

MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

Word version 5.50 does not include a video driver that directly supports the Wyse 700 display. If the Word 5.00 video driver file for the Wyse 700 is used with Word 5.50, the computer will hang while starting Word 5.50.

When installing Word 5.50 on a computer system that includes a Wyse 700 display, select “CGA or compatible (non-IBM)” from the video adapter list displayed during setup. With CGA selected, Setup will create a video driver file (SCREEN.VID) that provides the following display modes:

Text, 25 lines, 80 columns, monochrome Text, 25 lines, 80 columns, 16 colors Graphics, 25 lines, 80 columns, 2 colors
