I have a simple (I think) question: I have an old CGA monitor that I'm no longer using (having upgraded to VGA), and I was wondering if I could use it with my old 64 (which is currently broken, but I'll soon be getting it fixed and/or replaced). Is it possible? If so, is it easy?

Anything is possible, but using an RGB monitor with a C64 isn't easy. -- UUCP: watmath!xenitec!zswamp!root | 602-66 Mooregate Crescent Internet: root@zswamp.fidonet.org | Kitchener, Ontario FidoNet: SYSOP, 1:221/171 | N2M 5E6 CANADA Data: (519) 742-8939 | (519) 741-9553 MC Hammer, n.

I dont know of any way at all to use a CGA monitor on a C64, however it would make a very nice 80 col monitor for your C128 computer (if you have one). ctfm
