I too would be interested in any information that would allow me to use
SIMCGA on a EGA clone.  My EGA uses the Chips & Technologies EGA chip
set and uses the NMI software cludge to emulate a Hercules monochrome
graphics card.  When trying to run SIMCGA to emulate a CGA on my EGA which
is emulating a HGA the graphics fail.  Each line of pixils seems to be a 
little to long (10%?) so that subsiquent lines do not line up with the
lines above them.  Everything seems to work but the screen is virtually
garbage.

Does anyone have any suggestions?  Should this procedure work?  Are
the sources available to SIMCGA so someone could try to hack it to 
work directly on an EGA with a monochrome monitor?  Any responses
would be appreciated.
