Hang on a bit: we need more information.

Which vi are you using? Is this in a terminal of some description, or
is gvim opening its own window? What happens if you type :set term
(*not* in insert mode, obviously...) Are you using a ssh or telnet
connection: if you, what program are you using?

At a wild guess, it sounds to me like you've got terminal emulation
issues, where vi thinks it's got one sort of terminal, and your emulator
thinks it's a different sort of emulator.
