SYMPTOMS
========

When you switch among non-Windows applications in standard or enhanced modes of
Microsoft Windows 3.0 on a Toshiba T-5100, your screen display becomes garbled.

This may occur if you start a non-Windows application, then use the ALT+TAB keys
to switch to another application, and then later return to the non- Windows
application. When you return to the application, the screen will be totally
black or garbled.

WORKAROUND
==========

The only workaround is to run the non-Windows application in a window and size
the window.

STATUS
======

Toshiba is researching this problem. For more information, contact Toshiba.
