SUMMARY

When using Pyro!, a screen saver from Fifth Generation Systems, the Microsoft MS-DOS version 5.0 Shell screen will blink after Pyro! has been activated.

MORE INFORMATION

When the Pyro! screen saver is invoked, Shell will blink after the screen saver has been used. This occurs when you press any key to return to normal operations after the screen saver has been activated.

Task switching to another application and then going back to Shell will stop the screen from blinking. Re-expanding the DOSSHELL.VID file has no effect on this reaction.
