When i install it and reboot, win2k boots in standard vga mode. When i uninstall pcanywhere and reboot, the colors are normal again. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

Ohw, i checked the compatibility database on this site and couldn't find an entry about PCanywhere 10, only about 9.2 which seems to run fine (i don't have this one tho)...

I am and have been using pcAnywhere 10 for several months now. I have not had your problem.

What are your hardware specs? What pcAnywhere options are you selecting? Drop me a few more details and perhaps I can help.

P3 800EB
Abit be6-2
PC133 RAm 512MB
Hercules Geforce ddr (detonators 12.90, but i tried other versions and it gave the same problem)
hercules fortissimo 2 soundcard
pinnacle pctv
Maxtor 30GIG ata100
Quantum 8gig ata33

I didn't change any settings in pcanywhere yet as it gives the problem immediately after rebooting after the setup.

Windows gives me the error: "error loading nvcpl.dll"

Woohoo, problem solved!

There is this option somewhere in pcanywhere: "video mode selection"

I had to change it from "accelerator enabled" to "compatibility"
