Hi friends,
I have a functioning 386 which displays VGA color with no problems on an old (small) monitor. When I hook it up to a newer SVGA screen, it is defaulting to VGA monochrome.
I've tried using the MODE command in MS-DOS but this has no effect.
My guess is I need to re-configure the dip-switches on the graphics card. There are 4 switches, all OFF except switch 1.
The card is an ORCHID 0-VGA-30449 and dates from 1988. Does anyone out there have the info on these switches?
I've noticed that the pin arrangement of the 2 monitor cables differ. Is this an issue here also?
Thanks,
Harry
