Strange screenresolution and DPI with Chips 69000 controller

We have a device with an Advantech PCA-6770 all-in-one CPU card. That card has a Chips&Technologies (Asiliant) 69000 videoadapter on board. For this device we have develloped an application, using Borland Builder 5, that completely fills the screen. This works prefectly well on XPpro. But when I have loaded the latest Asiliant videodriver the application seems to be about 10% too large for the screen. Only when I change the DPI setting from the standard 96dpi to 86dppi, it appears normal again. The application can use both 800x600 and 1024x768, and has the same error in both sreenresolutions

Of course, I can use the application in 86 dpi. But I've got the feeling that there is an error somewhere. I just don't know where. The Asiliant driver for XPe uses the same driverfiles as the driver for XPpro. They just assembled a convenient, complete .sld file with some extra registry settings. So, because everything works fine under XPpro, I have the feeling that the error is somehwere in XP. What could it be
 
Kees,

Try Font Tracker on XPefiles.com

See if this makes 96dpi appear as "normal".

HTH,
