Greetings,
I am tring to get RHIDE to run with two monitors. I installed an old Herc card
in my PC, and RHIDE detects it, but nothing ever gets sent to the mono monitor.
When I type MODE MONO my mono monitor remains blank, my SVGA monitor freezes
except for the cursor, which still moves as if it were displaying stuff. I
checked to make sure that EMM386 wasn't using the memory that the Herc card
uses, I check to see if my video card (a TVGA9860 PCI) had an option for 8-bit
mode (I read somewhere that it might need to be set), I checked the setting in
my BIOS. Nothing works. There are some jumpers on the Herc card itself... When
I run MSD it sees the Hercules card as a secondary adapter. Anybody have any
ideas?
