SYMPTOMS
Some older CGA display adapters don't properly handle the scrolling of text. If you are using on of these cards, the DIR and MEM command /P parameter may not function correctly.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, add a device statement for ANSI.SYS with the /S parameter to the CONFIG.SYS file as in the following example:   device=c:\dos\ansi.sys /s
