Are you refering to an EGA monitor?

That's because Atari monitors are already compatible with the CoCo 3. They 
don't require converting.

That's what I do with a slodering iron too.

I'm trying.

Actualy, I like James's FPGA GIME upgrade. I hope I can order one soon.

You don't have a hard drive? Cloud 9 sells SCSI and IDE controllers.
