SUMMARY
Only one page (page 0) is supported in SCREEN mode 0 on a Hercules adapter. To obtain two pages, Hercules graphics mode (SCREEN 3) should be used.

The indicated documentation sources below incorrectly show two pages (pages 0 and 1) available in SCREEN mode 0 (TEXT mode) on a Hercules adapter. This is incorrect.
