I am trying to set the border color on my MCGA card (which is supposedly CGA
compatible according to IBM).  I am using the following C program to set the
color via BIOS Video Interrupt Function 0x0B; Select Pallet/Set Overscan Color.

#include <dos.h>

main() {
  union REGS regs;

  regs.h.ah = 0x0b; /* Function */
  regs.h.bh = 0;    /* Select Pallet 0, or in text mode, overscan color */
  regs.h.bl = 2;    /* Color */
  int86(0x10,&regs,&regs);
}

Now that information is correct according to:
   Peter Norton, Programmer's Guide to the IBM PC
   Richard Wilton, Programmer's Guide to IBM PC Video Systems???

Any ideas?  Suggestions (other than to give up)?

Thanks in advance,
