-
- You can use a monochrome card with CGA, EGA, VGA, and SVGA. You can also
- use a 8514/A (8914/A?) with the graphics cards. I don't remember the
- exact name of the card, but it is an IBM adaptor which uses different
- addresses than any of the others.
-
- There is a mention of all this in setting up Codeview in the C7.0 docs.
