<<I have been having plenty of video problems under OS/2 on my 770, and I
have no PCMCIA support installed, since I'm using only the internal MWave
modem right now. Not only does the screen go blank from time to time, but I
have also had screen flashing & a 1 inch line of garbage appear at the bottom
of the screen when opening and closing windows. Also, I have found at least
one application that does not work correctly under WIN-OS2 on this
machine, WordPerfect 7 for Win 3.1. WPWin7 works fine under Warp 4 on
the 380, and also under WFWG on the 770, so it is not an application
problem.
>>

Just to confirm that I also see the garbage at the bottom of the screen,
and I have also seen the screen flashing.

Nice to know that these are common problems, even nicer if they could be
fixed. Has anyone called IBM support on this yet?
