FLAME BACK ON


Me too. I had similar graphics problems after I installed an EGA board in a 
Tandy 1000TX. Tandy's inability to help led me to the purchase of a Gateway 
2000 computer (286-20MHz) and I've never been happier with a company. The 
Tandys are incompatibilities looking for a place to happen, REALLY !
