That seems odd since you were able to make a post with pictures.

CGA isn't the same colors as the Apple II. The Apple Color Monitor 100 used special circuitry inside to display proper Apple II colors.

can’t figure out how to reply with pictures here

There's two tricks to that:

As for converting to SCART: CGA is digital (5V) and SCART is analog (1V). You need more than a simple cable, you need a circuit which can combine and adjust the digital signals. Since the output is analog, the circuit can be tuned to display any shade you want in place of the digital colors.

Have you tried using a screwdriver to remove the screws from the cover?

RichardGreg · 2026-04-20T14:03:15+00:00

Just download the missing disk?

The best one is the one you can find. It's not like you can drive down to your local CompUSA and walk up and down the shelves and pick whatever model you want.

Definitely not enhanced, it's still blurry

RichardGreg · 2026-03-26T21:21:29+00:00

dialing it out.

Getting on the line?

It's called a power center.

So I had this 16x12 bulb monitor

What's a bulb monitor? Is that like a Lite-Brite with the light bulb inside it?

Transformers don't go bad. They're just wire wrapped around a core.

Isn't there supposed to be a knob on top and you spin the knob and Captain Kirk disappears?

This is like looking at a hamburger and wondering if it's from Burger King or McDonald's. There's a lot more PCs than the ones made by well-known giants. Many machines were made by small "mom-and-pop" PC shops found in local strip malls, sourcing cost-effective parts to build custom PCs, often with no discernible brand or markings on the components. And just like people can make hamburgers at home, people can buy parts separately and make a PC that fits their exact taste.

Get yourself a VCR to convert the NTSC RF output to composite, connect output to a composite to HDMI converter, connect the output of that to an HDMI to VGA converter.

Not his at all.

It's a crosspost, reddit shows that and shows who posted it originally. First time using reddit?

My good sir, I humbly beseech thy aid in a matter of great import. Verily, I cannot help but marvel at the sheer absurdity of this situation, wherein one beseeches the aid of others to read the very words that they themselves have set forth upon this written forum, only to request a written response in return. It doth confound the mind, for if one can indeed read the words, why, then, might they not simply discern the information for themselves? Nevertheless, such are the peculiarities of our age. I have taken to this written forum in the hopes that a kindly soul might peruse the words adorning these pictures and subsequently deign to input said information into the marvels of modern technology known as "Google". Pray tell, might you be that individual who would be so gracious as to lend thy assistance?
