A friend of mine has a problem with his PC: Windows 3.1
won't recognise his XGA card. The monitor he is using is
an 8214/A. Windows boots, displays the title screen, and
then hangs (though he can still hear the disk swapping).
It's almost as if windows wasn't switching on the display
or something.

Anyone any idea what's wrong?
