this works cause the color and monochrome displays are mapped into memory at different addresses, so they don't conflict. VGA/EGA/CGA are at B800:0000, monochrome is at B000:0000

The other way you could do this was to hook up a dumb terminal to the serial port of your PC. I don't know of any, but I'm sure there are some games that do that.

I was asked by someone if this was something we wanted to run against the IA collection of DOS stuff and find any/all monochromes and automatically screenshot. If you want, we can talk; I defer to your expertise in this manner.

Eh, I'm not sure how much useful info you'd get out of that. I suspect it's hard to tell when a game has legitimately put info on the text screen vs. just left DOS stuff there, and many games probably don't put any info there until you're deep in the game.

only for fun facts about foone, which this isn't. My C&C Foone Fact is that I bought C&C went it came out, and played it so much the disk got scratched. I loaned it to a friend, and his older brother tried to fix it with toothpaste.

Oooh. Card recommendation, please! Must it be an original Hercules?

I think any monochrome card should work.

Fun fact we didn't realize back then: If your monochrome card was 8 bit, that would throttle the entire ISA bus down to 8 bit, slowing down your precious 16-bit VGA card.

I had a motherboard that would downthrottle the PCI bus if you had any ISA slots in use! upgrading my old ISA soundcard to a PCI one doubled my voodoo 2 performance, around 2000
