Tried DOSBOX running DOS OrCAD and PCAD in Windows 7 using SVGA_S3 graphics emulation. Colors work fine in XP and 2000, but not in Windows 7. Tried on two different machines with a variety of graphics cards. I'm convinced it's not the hardware -- it's either DOSBOX or Windows 7. Anyone seen similar results?

PestyCat, the output must be "ddraw". Dosbox's "surface" output suffers when fullscreening.

Sad fat people are never good at using complex programs.
