|    CGA (or EGA or mono) to VGA Adapter    |

      XPost: comp.sys.ibm.pc.classic       From: wesf@rica.net              Anybody out there know of an adapter that will work to convert CGA (or EGA       or mono even) to VGA so that a modern monitor can be used with a vintage PC?              I've seen a few things out there in looking around, but they seem pricey and       questionable if they even would work. Seems like many of them are designed       to convert the output of old console arcade games to work with VGA monitors.       They are labeled as converting CGA to VGA, but there is some question in my       mind (based on searching the net) whether they would work with a PC source -       TTL digital CGA as opposed to analog RGB VGA (if there is such a thing and       this makes any sense).              Obviously the obvious route would be to put a VGA card in the old PC in       question, but I just think it would be nice to be able to use old PC's       without having to swap around a video card.              Thanks,              Wesley              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
