Can anyone tell me where I can buy/obtain a driver for the IBM
professional graphics board?  My dad bought it expecting to do
high res graphics, but nothing runs with it.  He has Microsoft
windows which uses drivers for the screen; we would like a
windows PG driver.  One for TURBO Pascal would be nice also.  In fact,
if someone could just send me specifications for the PG (the
documentation that comes with says: plug in the board, turn on
your PC) and for MS Windows drivers, I could write my own!  Does
windows use any of the standards (e.g. VDI)?  We have a VDI driver
for PG that came with T-Basic, but it does not work with windows.
