/* Written 11:03 pm Aug 3, 1986 by ross@isis.UUCP in uiucuxe:net.micro.pc */ /* ---------- "garbled screen with Autocad on PC'S" ---------- */ I have a PC's Limited 286 machine, running at 6 or 8 megahertz. It's hooked up to a Universal Graphics II card and a "FlatScreen" B&W monitor, also from PC's Limited. When I try to run Autocad, the menu screens are fine but any displayed images are garbled - complete junk on the screen. The monitor/ graphics card successfully run the "test.exe" program supplied with the graphics card. The card is in Hercules mode, and Autocad is configured for a Hercules card. The machine has a 80287 installed. HOWEVER, when I replace the monitor with an Amdek 310A, all is fine - perfect images. What gives ? Any help would be appreciated. Tech support at PC's limited is trying to feed me a line that " maybe the FlatScreen monitor isn't designed to run Autocad, or else it's a bug in Autocad ". This sounds fishy to me..... /* End of text from uiucuxe:net.micro.pc */
