Hi, everyone,

I have an application that absolutely needs 256 colors. In superVGA
mode, everything works great. However, in standard VGA mode, the
text(menu, prompts etc) is way too ugly and big. Is there anyway
to use the ROM text font (say 25 rows) in 320X200X256 mode ? 
I have turbo assembler and turbo c.

Thanks in advance for any info.
