It sounds like you have the system board switch set expecting
a color or monochrome monitor.  There are three possible 
settings: color, monochrom, or other.  It should be set to other.
(At least for my EGA, which is a NSI Logic ega clone)

By the way, the NSI Logic is a good ega clone.  It is the only one
I know of that real documentation is available for- they have
a Tech Ref manual they sell for 39.95 with a coupon that comes
with the board.  It also has hardware emulation of both MDA and
CGA, which makes funny game software work just fine.\
PC Connection in New Hampshire is(was?) selling them for $279.
