i have an 286 AT with a non standard graphic card . It is an
NCR, and the graph. adapter is 'NGA' : 480*400 in 4 colors... it
is a *lot* better than CGA, but as it is not standard, all programmes,
including windows, use it as a CGA adapter...
does anyone has ever try window in CGA mode ?  ;)

As i think nobody as never heard of a NGA driver for MS-Windows, my
question is :
* Do Microsoft provides powerful tools to write specific screen drivers
* for Windows 2 or 3 ??
* If yes, do they provide it free ?
thanks in advance...
