Please help a newbie with SVGA ... :)

Hiyas ... I'm new to Euphoria, but not to programming in general ...
that is, I have limited experience with some other programming languages
...

Anywho. My problem is with the SVGA modes, 256+. I can't get any of them
to work! Whenever I try to use them, ie with graphics_mode(), I can only
use the top 1/3 of the screen ... the rest is unaccessable. I have no
idea why this is ... I can use SVGA modes on various other things, like
games, so I know it isn't my graphics card. It's a ATI Rage II with
2megs of RAM, if that matters.

I tried using Univbe VESA and use_vesa(), but that gave me an illegal
operation under Win95 ... so I rebooted to DOS mode, and it locked up my
system rather soundly, so I had to reboot.

Any ideas? I'd rather not be stuck using mode19 for everything. :) (That
works fine, btw, as do every other graphics mode.)

Thanks. Bye! :)
