Ramey @ Raytheon Company, Portsmouth RI) Organization: Raytheon Company, Portsmouth RI Lines: 24 Keywords: XT Clone problems Since I have my own XT clone, I should be a little more aware of how my hardware works, but... Anyway, (1) I currently have a Hercules compatable adaptor and I use "SIMCGA" software, etc. etc. to simulate the CGA. Is there currently a monitor card(similar to what is used in the 6300) to output CGA to a monochrome monitor? and (2) You'll love this one, I have two different disk drives in my system. One is a Fujitsu, the other is a TEAC. I am not sure what type of card my controller is, but on more than one occassion, I have trouble accessing either drive in the form of data read errors (I can take the disks and read them on an IBM with no problem). Anybody have similar problems or have any quick answers? Bill Ramey
