I was wondering if someone out there might know how to activate a 286 accelerator card from Mega Omega called -- The Companion Card. This card is installed in a Zenith 158 that we picked up as a used package deal from a non-retail scource and there was no manual to be found. We think the card includes 2 meg of extended memory (1 meg one the card, 1 meg piggy backed). I have checked the included harddisk and autoexec.bat for associated utilities but can find none. I have never used an accelerator card before and can not find anybody who has. Since the card was installed in the machine I am assuming that the company that was using it had it up and running (that company has bit the dust and cannot be found --- bankrupcy :-) ). Are these cards activated with a hot key? Do they require software? Anyone ever hear of this company? Any help getting this card up and running would be appreciated. Thanks.
