The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Systems Management Server, version 1.2

SYMPTOMS

When using the Remote Control feature to access a client computer running Windows 95 using a video card with a Cirrus Logic 5446 chipset, the Quick Viewer display will become corrupted. Corruption will include odd colors, screen "droppings," and missing parts of remote windows.

This behavior only occurs on client computers running Windows 95, not Windows NT Workstation.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 1.2. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
