->Thanks to the many people who replied to my original post.  I am current

->I will immediately post it.

Ed, how about using ANOTHER 16 bit VGA card and enabling its mono section 
only? I notice lots of VGA cards have the Hercules mode. Now whether they 
switch to 8-bit mode when they do this I don't know. Also, I suspect most 
VGA cards WILL NOT co-exist with a second vga brd.  Anyone comment/tried 
this idea?  Perhaps MS tech-support can help?
