Screen Blank or Black
Sometimes the graphics drivers and or directx drivers go bad. Or you may have a substandard graphics card.
This can affect any windows program that uses directx. Especially games.
If the screen appears to be blank or black in full screen mode then you either have graphic driver's problem or directx driver problem.
If you are having trouble with the windows version;make sure you have the latest video drivers, and good directx drivers.
If updating the directx drivers fails; then try
GDI mode.
This is a non directx mode
RadioTelephone Tutor will check that the graphics card is capable of the resolution that it needs. (640 by 480 32bit TrueColor).
If it does not detect it then; it goes windowed mode. Pressing Alt-Enter causes it to go windowed or fullscreen.
You also have the option of using TutorSetup and telling it to go windowed mode; instead of fullscreen mode.
In Windows 7, and Vista alt-enter does not work in directx mode.
In order to use Alt-Enter , change to GDI mode.
In fullscreen mode, directx is better and more responsive.
