Hi!
I currently own an RGB color monitor(TTL) whose horizontal scanning rate
is about 24KHz (fixed frequency) and is cabable of handling non-interlaced
640x400 resolution. And I am planning to build up an IBM AT compatible system.
So it would be great if I can use this monitor on that system.
So I am looking for a CRT controller card for IBM PC compatibles that can
handle this monitor. I am not familiar with CGA, EGA, VGA, or PGA, so I
wonder if any of these supports the monitor.
I do not care about the screen immediately after boot up if the display mode
can be set to use this monitor after then.

Could any of you answer my question? Any comments or pointers would be helpful.
Please e-mail your responses.
Thank you in advance.
