You can't do it with GRAPHIC.COM. Hercules graphics is *not* an IBM mode.
So support for it doesn't come with DOS. You either need a recent copy of
the HGC.COM program that comes with *real* Hercules cards (not the clones)
or you'll have to find a public domain, shareware or commercial package
that handles Hercules mode.
