OK, I admit, the machine is a dinosaur. But that's all I've got, and I would like to know if anyone knows if it is possible to modify the system somehow to support an external VGA monitor. Currently there is a video slice to support an external CGA monitor, but has anyone tried to make any modifications so that it will support VGA? Is it even possible, with some not-too-major hardware modifications? Mickey Ferguson Rolm Systems fergusom@scrvm2.vnet.ibm.com

I suspect you'll find the same thing with the VGA monitor driver. 'Best of luck. Euan
