[comp.graphics] Hercules Clone Card Problems

tcamp@ecsvax.UUCP (Ted A. Campbell) (11/12/87)

I recall that someone posted a similar problem recently, but
I didn't catch any responses, if there were any, so here 
goes again:  I have an XT-clone with a Hercules Clone card
in it.  Commercial software (GEM) and share ware (Spacewars,
Simcga) seem to work fine; but when I try to run programs that
I have compiled with the prec[Dscribed formula before I run any 
of the commercial software or shareware, it looks th[D[Dlike the screen
is out of synch.  Oddly enough, this same software seems to
run fine after I have run GEM or Simcga or Spacewars. So...what
are these programs doing that my gmode() function according
to the book is not doing?  Do I have to select a video page
or some such thing?
