The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: When a customer did a spell check on a word, her speller worked just fine. However, if she did a spell check on a document, her screen would go black. She could press F1 to cancel but then her screen font would change to a large font both in WordPerfect and DOS. She had to reboot to get her old display back. After trying several things, (i.e. mode commands, /w startup option, manually selecting graphic and text screen driver, running vanilla, etc.) we found that the /nf startup option allowed her to run a spell check without blackening her screen or changing her screen font. She was using an IBM clone with a VGA monitor and WP 5.1 dated 06/29/90 with a Speller dated 06/29/90, but this has also been known to happen on newer release dates.
