- I remember about 7 or 8 years ago, when I was just a kid who
- thought CGA was the ultimate, some magazine my Dad got had
- an article on getting this mode. I typed in all the code, and it
- worked, but I quit using it because it was so buggy. It kept locking
- up the computer. Now, I could have had a typo in the listing, or I
- might have been using it wrong, but I just remember that it did work,
- but for some reason I had to quit using it.
-
- In a word- You can do it and it does work.
-
- If you are really concerned with it and you can't find any answers,
- I could go home, boot up my old PCjr, hope all my teen-year diskettes
- still work, and see if I can find the code. Let me know.
