Ok, so I've bought myself a second hand Monochrome monitor
and Hercules graphics card. There don't seem to be any conflicts
bewteen the graphics card and my computer. When I set my computer
to monochrome display (in the BIOS), the monochrome monitor
is used instead of my normal SVGA one.

However, when I try to debug in RHIDE under MSDOS 6.22 or
Windows 95 DOS, the computer resets itself. When I try to debug
in a Windows 95 dos "box" the process locks up, and I have to
kill the process manually.

Now, I'm wondering, has anyone else had these problems with RHIDE ?

I realise that I should have told you my RHIDE code version number,
and provided you with the RHIDE system info, but am at work and won't
be able to post it until I get home (which I will do).

But first I'll go get myself a newer version of the RHIDE source
(if there is one), and re-compile.

[As an after thought]
I paid only $20 for monitor and card together, and when I get it
going I envisage it will decrease my debugging time by a fair bit.
Now _THAT_ is a _GOOD_ investment.


Cheers,
Graham.
