Does anyone know of a micro channel video board which has a composite video output, and will co-exist with the PS/2 built in VGA. I would like to drive an old video projector from a PS/2 Model 50Z. I know that these board exist, I just don't know who makes or sells them. Any pointers would be greatly apopreciated! -- Ted Goldstein E-mail: du4@mace.cc.purdue.edu Network and Systems Admninistrator Phone : (317) 494-9070 Purdue University School of Technology Office: Knoy Hall, Rm G009 Philosophy's alright, when you have a house to think about it in-Arlo Guthrie

As for composite video and VGA ... what does a VGA output look like in CGA mode? I have a real CGA that I use if I want composite video (not MCA, though). If you want color (was that implied) then it would be harder, but it may be possible to convince a VGA to generate a monochrome composit video signal.

It looks exactly like a CGA, including in what modes colour is available, and how many at a time. I don't know if that's good news or bad -- aesthetically, it's certainly bad, but maybe it's good for program behaviour. Is there any such thing as a CGA board, even EGA, for microchannel? Or did you mean something else by MCA? For a few more interesting modes you might look at MCGA, which is, or was, used on the model 25. Alastair Milne
