- Hi, does anyone know how to hook a monochrome monitor (Sharp, if it
- matters) to an IBM 286 machine? It has a RCA jack in the back. It's
- pretty old, probably 1982. I used to use it with an Apple IIe, so I
- know it can do 80x24 chars, which is good enough for the 286.
-
- But damned if I can figure out how to hook it up to a PC. I can't
- find any sort of video card for it, they're all 9 or 15 pin
- EGA/VGA type.
-
- I do have a Hercules monochrome card I'd like to use with it, so I'm
- hoping for some sort of simple cable...
