------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.      Known Problems

5.1     RUNman

	With Central Point PC Tools for Windows the standard hotkey
	<Ctrl-Shift-Ins> to add symbols to RUNman does not work.

	There is the same problem with the HP Dashboard. Use drag & drop
	to add symbols to RUNman (drag the symbol with the mouse and
	drop it into the RUNman window).


5.2     SCREENman
	
	Using Windows for Workgroups 3.11 there may appear some 
	problems with the multi I/O chip FDC37C665 from SMC. After
	choosing an interface the system may halt. This error can be
	avoided by changing the file COMM.DRV with the COMM.DRV from
	Windows 3.1.

	The variable color temperature of the GDM-20H110 can be modified 
	only with the front panel of the monitor. With "Cancel" the
	value for the color temperature cannot be written back, the
	choice in SCREENman is valid.
