Hello,

I have the same problem with nVidia GeForce2 MX200 64MB and I think You are
right with the following:

Is it possible as an workaround not to use this feature (VGA save/restore
service) in RHIDE/ setedit ? Can You, Andris Pavenis, Robert Höhne or
anybody else please recomend what and where in rhide should be changed?

Thanks a lot for all possible sugestions.

Petr
