I do not have any experience of this machine but I done a similar thing on other machines with built in VGA. If you have a look at the motherboard there will be a line of jumpers normally labelled or at least with a number and somewhere else will be list of what number does what. You may have to remove a jumper or reposition it. Look for something like VGA enabled/disabled. Hope this helps a bit. awright@netcomuk.co.uk wrote in article <36583216.6664@netcomuk.co.uk>... > Hi does anyone have any experience in upgading this > machine.The problem I have is that I have one of these machines running > a 486 processor using windows 3.1,unfortunately the on-board graphics > system can only deliver 16 colours and most of my sons games require 256 > colours,is there any way I can upgrade the graphics system to meet this > spec.Also as I bought the system second hand I have no manual to show me > how to diable the on-board graphics system in order to add a graphics > card.
