I had a previous version which worked flawlessly, but I have a couple of questions about the newest versi on. 1 - Has anyone managed to get the fetaure list at startup to display on an 800x6 00 resolution setting? I get a FULLTEXT error, and I get sent back to Windows, so I have to disable the feature list at startup in the Preferences... dialog. I believe I can still access all of the functionality once I get past this, but I have a difficult time comprehending why it wouldn't work at this resolution. I have an Orchid Fahrenheit 1280 Video card. 2 - What's the difference with the previous version of the encyclopedia? I do a dir /s and I see that about 300 Megs worth of stuff has been added, although I can't seem to find any added elements to the encyclopedia (except for the Knowledge Explorer). I guess I was hoping for more videos, more pictures, more articles, etc... Can anyone indicate what the improvements are? Thanks in advance, Phil "lost in Grolier-land" Amyotte Montreal, QC pamyotte@mtl.unisysgsg.com
