Re: Video Card For xi 8088

[Sergey <skis...@gmail.com>]

Well, it does look that this card supports 8-bit bus with auto-
sensing: http://www.vgamuseum.info/images/stories/doc/ati/integra-basic16.pdf

Other things to check / try:

- Do you see any of these codes on the display:
e_video_bios_ok   equ   11h         ; Video BIOS found
e_video_init_ok   equ   12h         ; Video BIOS initialized

Normally there is a slight delay on code 11h, while the video BIOS
initializes the card, checks memory, etc.

- Do you have any of J4 jumpers installed? If you do, please remove
them.

Thanks,
Sergey
