I need some 80X86 code to determine what type of graphics is being
used: MONO, CGA, EGA, or VGA. I remember seeing an example in  one
of the journals somewhere (PCTech, PC Magazine, etc.) but can't 
remember where or what issue. Help from anyone with a better 
memory than me would be appreciated. 

However, even that article didn't not contain code on how to recognize
a VGA board....which I need also.

Again any pointers to the article or code fragements would be appreciated.
