I tried configuring my display and now it won’t work properly.

In Windows 95, if you choose a configuration that won’t display properly,
follow these steps to correct the problem:

1. Switch to the Mac OS by typing x-Return.

2. In the PC Setup control panel, click Restart PC.

3. Switch to the PC by clicking Switch to PC.

4. When you see the message “Starting Windows 95,” press to enter

Safe Mode.

5. When Windows 95 starts up, click Start, choose Settings, and click

Control Panel.

6. Double-click the Display icon.

7. Click the Settings tab, and select a correct monitor setting in the list that

appears (such as 640x480). Then restart Windows.

My monitor flashes oddly when I switch environments.

When you are using a single monitor for both environments, there is a flash
when you switch from one environment to the other. If you prefer not to see
the flash, turn on the Fade Screens option in the PC Setup control panel.

When I start up certain software in the PC environment, my Apple monitor shows a
jumbled or rolling image.

You may have selected the wrong monitor type when configuring your video
software. For more information, see Chapter 4, “Installing the PC
Compatibility Card Software.”

Some application programs that write directly to the hardware (especially
games) may not work with some monitors. Contact the software company and
ask if the software has a switch to force it to make BIOS calls.
