2. Compatibility:
Monochrome Display Adapters are compatible on the Epson Equity 386/33
Plus system.
Pre-configuring system C-MOS is required. Refer to page 2 of
this document for details.
3. Display Symptoms & Causes:
System CMOS must be pre-set to successfully install a Monochrome video
sub-system. The system will not sync properly after a Monochrome adapter
and display are installed. A common complaint at that point is that the system
is dead (no boot activity or keyboard response).
