subject: Bink help WIN-XP w/X7 ver.

Looking for suggestions..

OK, I've got Bink 260 X7 version for NT able to open on this test box with
WIN-XP latest and critical packs fixed.  At this point the POTS version
using the executable that was in the \NT subdirectory of the oarchive will
run, and will poll via a controller based modem, connect with another of my
POTS Bink sites on OS/2 and so on.  It will also exit to MAX 3.01 and seems
to work there.

But .. the visual screen for the Bink operation has the header up at the
top just fine, but a humongous bunch of black space empty lines in the log
file display screen until you get way down hundreds of lines later to the
bottom of whatever.  At that point all the log display is visible.  In
fact, if you Alt X and get out of Bink, when it is over, there on the
screen will be all those log lines which were missing from the visual part
of the Bink user screen.

I'm not a WIN oriented person.  Been OS/2 for years.  What am I doing wrong
with the BINKLEY.CFG file or the video in the WIN-XP box which is causing
this issue?

Thanks..
