Click the Start button, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type sysedit and click OK. This opens the System Configuration Editor,
with several files open and displayed on the screen.
Click the title bar of Win.ini to bring it to the front.
On the Search menu, click Find.
In the Find box, type drawdib, and then click Next.
In the [drawdib] section, add the following entry: dva=0
NOTE: If there is no [drawdib] section, add the following to the Win.ini file: [drawdib]
dva=0
On the File menu, click Save.
Exit the System Configuration Editor.
Restart Windows.
