        I have recently inherited a PGA card and monitor but without 
any documentation. How does one access the advanced capabilities of this
card? I do have the PGD driver from IBM and according to the AT technical
manuals there are high level graphics commands available....its just
that I can't read my computers mind. Any help here would be greatly
appreciated.

                                Thanks in advance,

                                Martin Jordan
