Running '98 4.10.1998. We have several users set up to log in with their own environment including display resolution. Recently upgraded video card to a ATI Radeon 32MB DDR AGP4X. Went through the steps of resetting the primary user logon display to VGA and then upgraded the video card, new drivers, etc. Then set the primary user's display to the new card characteristics. Apparently I should have set the other users to VGA as well. When any of the other users log in, the system freezes with a wacked video image. This doesn't happen for .Default as well as the primary user logon (under which all upgrades were executed). Question: How can I correct these other users display from .Default or the primary user logon?
Thanks in advance.

Resolved. I reset the video adapter to Standard VGA so I could get all users to log in. I then ensured
each user was configured VGA. I then logged in as the default user and reinstalled the new display
adapter drivers. All users were able to log in and set their display properties.
