I have a CGA/monochrome video setup on my 6300+, and I want to upgrade to VGA (super VGA?). I am also impressed with the Zenith Flat Tension Mask color monitor. Has anyone put an Zenith FTM monitor on a Plus? What video board did you use? Any problems with software or hardware? Thanks ... Steve

The details for doing that is in the Service Manual. If I remember correctly it involves replacing a chip and moving jumpers. (You can not simply remove the card and replace it whith another one). Good luck, and if you feel like it please post the details to this Newsgroup. ------------------------- S. Alavi (919) 467-7909
