#BBoard colour display
6 messages in this thread
Ive got a 386sx board installed in my A3000. Also installed a Viglen multi
io board. (very nice) 5mb total ram on the bboard.
Within the last 3 days or so Windows won't display in colour. I've checked
PcPrefs and both video modes are disabled. In BBsetups Vga is enabled,
however, although the Windows logo comes up OK the rest of windows is in a
mono mode. I can't figure out why this should be. Anyone got any clues
please?

Pete,
Assuming you have color running otherwise, you might check to see if
you inadvertently changed video drivers in Windows.
Are you using color windows drivers?

Hmmm…thought I was but I'll check.
Got a new 170mb Conner to install this weekend when I get the Y shape
power connectors. That should make a difference.

Pete,
Make sure you didn't select a monochrome mode for your Window's
preferences. Go into the Control Panel, select the Color ICON and see
what you've loaded. Also make sure you've got the correct video driver
selected.

Thanks Don I'll do that.

Ok done that and the default? VGA mode had been set. However, it seems to
be flakey so installed loads of new Paradise drivers which work very
well.
Thanks for the several suggestions to all.
