Q14. The MGA video board with Lotus 1-2-3 will not display
graphics on the monochrome monitor.
A. Use the HGC FULL mode for Hercules graphics.
Q15.
Microsoft's Flight Simulator is not working. Any
suggestions?
A. Most games require a video adapter board that supports
graphics.
Use the Epson MGA (Q205A-AA), CGA (Q505A-AA)
or EGA (Q206A-AA) boards with a CGA or EGA color monitor.
Use the MGA or EGA boards in Hercules graphics mode with a
monochrome monitor.
Q16. An MGA video board with color monitor isn't working. Any
suggestions?
A. The Equity It is often sold with the Epson MGA Multi-Mode
video adapter board.
Ensure that the switch on the rear
panel of the video board is set for color and not
monochrome.
Q17. My color monitor display blinks on and off when in 40 column
mode using an Equity It, FDD system with an Epson MRS-CR,
CGA color video board.
A. This can be corrected by replacing the AGN-MT option slot
board with the latest revision (Rev. 02) board, part number
Y14421100002. It can also be corrected by installing an
additional option card in the I/O expansion bus.
Q18. What are the dip switch settings for EGA video mode.
A. Set 1-5 and 1-6 to on.
Q19. My Boca EGA card displays angled lines with the Equity It.
Make sure the Boca ROM BIOS is not version 1.21. This
version does not work at 10MHz. Install an earlier version
Boca EGA ROM BIOS or contact Boca Research.
Q20. The parallel printer port does not work when I use the MGA
video board.
A. Set the computer's dip switches for secondary parallel port
(2-1 and 2-2 both off).
This is an anomaly specific to the
Equity It / MGA board configuration. Please refer to Product
Support Bulletin S-0023.
