Default Super VGA display keeps changing size

Check with the manufacturer of the display card for an updated video driver.

Did this always happen with this card? If not, when did it change? What
changed on your system just before this time - hardware or software added or
removed?

Does this happen when the system is cold (been off for a period of time), or
warm (been running for a long time). Your graphics card could be failing.
Random behavior like you describe is often a sign of hardware failure, poor
connection, etc. so make sure that the card is firmly seated if it is not a
component of the motherboard.

When booting up, the Win 98 splash screen and the MS-DOS to that the
graphics stretch across the screen and are squeezed and narrow at both
ends.
This also the case in safe mode. But there are times when during boot up,
the graphics are in the right proportions, but this is hit and miss.

I've tried reinstalling the super vga driver and making monitor display
adjustments but this hasn't helped. I've asked this question before with
no
replies. Please help.
