I like to play SMAC in 1024x768. My monitor is only 15" so I want the desktop at 800x600. I put the Video Mode 1024 in the ini file and SMAC switches to 1024x768. Here's the problem: The Win 98 task bar (autohide, always on top)shows up in the middle of the screen in SMAC. And it won't go away until I click on it and disable "always on top". Actually, it's kind of funny because you can "bounce" the task bar. It thinks it's hiding. Would this be a graphics problem or just a Win98 "issue".

Thanks in advance.
Ron

Weird. I'll see if I can dupe it here.

BTW, my video is an 8 meg Diamond g-460 and I also have a 12 meg Monster II installed. As far as I know, I have the latest drivers. I checked a couple of weeks ago.
