                          PREMIUM 386SX/16 AND VERSACAD 386

    When executing a warm boot immediately after exiting the Versacad 386 program
    on a Premium 386SX/16 with ASTVGA.EXE installed, the color graphic functions
    appear to be lost.  A cold boot is then required to correct the problem.

    The problem is resolved by adding the following two command lines to the
    system's AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

              ASTVGA color
              ASTVGA lock

    Note:  If using the ASTCACHE utility, the ASTVGA command lines must be issued
           before the ASTCACHE.COM line is executed.
