Hello all

I am having a hell of a time trying to setup an old PC for a relative. They
have only an old colour EGA monitor with an Sonica Ultra EGA Display
Adaptor.
How do you setup Win95 to run without a screen full of gibberish?

Thanks to all in advance
Sean (Australia)

You don't. Win 95 does not support EGA.

For Win 95 you have to have VGA, EGA will not work.

EGA will work with Win 3.1.
