Dosbox, latest CVS version, compiled under cygwin with mingw.
For some reason on my pc, all palettes in 16 or 256 colors are extremely messed up in any color depth in windowed mode. (I've tried it with 256, 16m, and 32m color mode)
Is this normal? I've seen windowed screenshots from other machines running XP, and I've looked for information on the boards (the only reference I've seen suggested trying 256 color mode, which results in the same mangled palette, only with less colors).
My specs
---------
AMD Athlon 2.08ghz
512mb PC2100 DDR
Geforce4 MX440
Detonator Drivers v.45.23
Creative SB Live! Value
Windows 2000 Professional
Any game
EGA, VGA modes in windowed

Image is stored on geocities... if it doesn't come up, try this link:

Edit again:
if it STILL doesn't come up, hit refresh. Geocities is becoming increasingly useless.
Edit yet again:
Just thought to mention, programs that operate properly in a normal cmd.exe dos box have the correct palette in a windowed mode.
