I am trying to install an ATI Small Wonder Graphics Solution
card in my early model 1000. This card was given to me without
any manual. I've installed the card, connected my Tandy composite
video monitor to the RCA jack on the card, powered-up and found
nothing more than a blank screen (semi-expected, I guess).
So I changed some settings on the card's 4 dip switches and
found out that toggling switch number 1 made the difference
between no output and _some_ output to the monitor.
By _some_ output I mean that every time a program sends a line to
the screen (may it only be a few characters), there is nothing
more than "snow" on that line, along the entire screen width.
The CGA on the motherboard seems to keep on working at all times.
Please send any response by email if possible. Thanks.
