VGA B/W SCREEN COLORS



Chris --
  *Help!!!!* As I predicted, my new computer is smarter than I am. The problem
this time is that somehow my screen-color definitions got lost. The probable
cause was changing .PRN files, from the standard HPII file to the HPII
ProCollection file (forgive me, I forget the exact filenames). The horrible
result is that I am now being forced to take responsibility for setting my own
screen colors, or whatever you call the images on a b&w VGA screen. What's most
horrible about this is that the color file in LONG.HLP, which I've been using
to create a COLOR.PRN file to get me out of this mess, doesn't offer an
characters with real on-screen underlining. Now, I know my video board can do
that, because until today it showed underlining typewriter-style, with a funky,
broken-underline. And since my screen is monochrome, setting underline modes
without real underlines is very awkward looking. Is there an easy way to get
back to the default colors I had last week? Thanks, sps
