Hi there,
 
This is quite a tough question to answer but i'll fire it anyway to see if I can get any response. I have some very old DOS software that only displays output on a hercules video card. I want to try and get this output and place it on a modern card as trying to run a system with old hardware is proving impossible. Also I can't rewrite the software as I don't have the sourcecode.
 
So here is my question : Does anyone know of a hercules emulator I could use to get this output onto a modern card?
 
Any other ideas on getting round this problem would be most helpful.
 
Many thanks ...
