Alright so recently my main computer went AWOL and crashed the mother board. So i asked a friend for parts and instead he is giving me many of his old computers (around 10 of them plus or minus a couple). Now most of them are over 5 years old but thats alright. so i went to his house and grabbed a few and made a interesting discovery. One of the computers has a copy of windows 3.1 on it. I've done research on it and the computer seems to have the original hardware ETC. Now i have one issue i cant seem to get video working but other then that it fires right up. I tried switching the drive into another computer but i be leave the computer HHD is to old to support the newer devices. When i tried booting it to see the winver the screen kept flickering but wouldn't stay on so i need to find a way to turn the video (or connect it i would have to say). anyone have any ideas? i'm also thinking of selling this computer

Foremost, unless you live in an economically deficient country nobody will give you any money for that computer.

Does BIOS or DOS bring up any video?

If I were you I would!
