(Ken Olson, Ex-President Digital Equipment, 1977) | Enschede -- NL Just say NO to a Herc card and a VGA card in your machine at the same time. Because unless you have a 16 bit Herc card the VGA card will _also_ run in 8 bit mode (net effect is slow VGA). Of course if you need the second card and don't care about running the VGA card in 8 bit mode it _does_ work just fine. -Jeffrey E. Hundstad AS/400 Sys. Admin. Mankato State University
