Video selection is normally found on the "first" bios setup page. Thanks. I put back the VGA monitor card and checked. On the BIOS set-up page it shows the display type as "VGA/CGA" but stippled out, as it also stipples out the amount of memory. There are other video related memory settings to be played with, but I'm guessing monochrome is not an option. True?? Thanks.
