SYMPTOMS
========
 
When you play a quiz, the answer balloon may cover a portion of the
right or left edge of the main quiz screen. This may obscure or hide
some of the questions or features.
 
RESOLUTION
==========
 
This can be corrected by:
 
 - Moving the balloon out of the way
 
   -or-
 
 - Changing the video display driver that is being used in Windows.
 
Steps to Move the Balloon Out of the Way
----------------------------------------
 
1. Move the mouse to the top-left corner of the balloon. It should
   change to an open hand.
 
2. Click and hold down the left mouse button.
 
3. While holding down the mouse button, move the balloon to the desired
   position.
 
4. Once the balloon is in the desired position, release the mouse
   button.
 
Information About changing the Video Display Driver
---------------------------------------------------
 
For steps on how to change the video display driver, see your Windows
printed documentation or online help, or see the video driver's manual.
When you change this display driver, select a driver that will not be using
Large Fonts.
 
MORE INFORMATION
================
 
This problem can occur if a Large Fonts driver is chosen as the Windows
video display. Large Fonts will show the various balloons and dialog boxes
in a larger font size, which may increase the size of these balloons or
dialog boxes.
 
For more information, see the "Using Large Fonts" section in the
Microsoft Bob README.TXT file.
