HGC (Hercules Graphics Card)

The HGC standard supports a high-resolution 720-by-348 pixel monochrome text or
graphics display. The text display for HGC mode is the same as for MDA mode. The
TravelMate 3000 LCD screen does not support HGC graphics mode. To display HGC
graphics, connect a multifrequency monitor to the external monitor connector on the left
