[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] HOW TO CONNECT ATARISC1224

petey@umbc5.umbc.edu (09/01/90)

Hello everyone,

I have a little hardware problem.
I have a Commodore pc10-III with a monochrome(green screen)
that does absolutley no graphics whatsoever.
I also have an atari sc1224 color monitor from my atari 1040st.
Anyone know how to connect this to my commodore?

I think I remember reading somewhere how to build your own adapter
to do this, which simply connect certain pins together.

Anyone seen this article or know how to do this?

Also, anyone know if this commodore pc10-III can do more than monochrome
if it had a color monitor?  
Theres a dip switch in the back with a picture of 3 setting labelled
monochrome, monitor color 80, and color40
So does this machine have an ega card in it, or something similar (cga?)

If it doesnt, what does an ega card cost, and whats the cheapest one
I can buy that actually works?


thanx a bunch!!!!
