Targa
Targa+
Usually the Targa+ operates in Non-Contigous mode where the 16 I/O registers
used are spread in 4 groups of 4 registers each separated by 400h. By setting
a jumper the Targa+ can operate in Contigous mode where the 16 registers are
laid out sequentially. Also the base I/O address is set by jumpers.
Note that this is one adapter where the indexed registers can really be 16bit
wide, so that the notation W(R/W) indicates ONE 16bit index, not two 8bit ones
