This is probably a simple question and I could not find the FAQ for
this group so here it is:

I recently got some software which requires either an EGA, MCGA, or VGA
video adapters.  What is MCGA?  The software will not run on my PC
with a CGA card.   Additionally, does an emulator exist so I can run
the software on my PC (ie: can I fool the software into thinking I
have either of the monitors listed)?

Thanks for your help.
