I have bought a used clone, and it comes with a "MGP CARD" mono
adapter with parallel printer port.  Curiously, the manual says that
the board is Herc compatible, and provides 720Hx348V mono graphics.
It doesn't work with Dutchie 2.71, or AN, or a lot of my other
programs, and SIMCGA40 doesn't work.  I get the problem of having only
pure white characters displayed.
Can anybody help?  Do I gotta buy another card?
Mark
