Hello all,

I am looking for a way to discover what sort
of grahics card (ie. EGA, VGA etc) in installed
in a PC either through s/w (BIOS calls etc) or
at the DOS prompt.

Quick history: friends board goes off for repair,
and upon return some graphics applications no
longer work, any ideas ?

I do not have anon FTP access ;-(

Any help, pointers etc. much appreciated.
