This post saved my skin! Thanks for noticing that the video expansion setting would make this work. I just upgraded my wife's Dell D505, and it was set to show a smaller-and-crisper boot-up screen (video expansion = off). If she had seen the screen in that funky interlaced / overlapped / folded mode, I would've been in trouble, for sure. She might've made me buy her a Macbook!
Meanwhile, problem solved. I am happy that she can run jaunty on her lappie.
