PARADISE VGA CHALLENGE
This program is designed to test the hardware compatibility of a VGA
video board. The hardware compatibility of a video board refers to
the ability of the registers that control the functions of the video
board to respond the same way as the registers on the IBM (tm) standard
Hardware compatibility is important because some programs communicate
with the VGA video board hardware registers directly rather than
communicating with the board through the board's software BIOS
interface. If the board's hardware registers are not fully compatible
with the IBM VGA standard, such programs will not be able to control the
video properly and the results will be unpredictable.
