SUMMARY
This article discusses how Paintbrush works with the Zenith Z-449 video card.

MORE INFORMATION
The 31-kilohertz Zenith Z-449 video card is a display adapter with a wide range of capabilities.

It is the standard adapter bundled with the Zenith Flat Tension Mask (FTM) monitor. It is a VGA-compatible video board that also is capable of supporting all the CGA, EGA, and VGA modes, except the VGA/CGA 320 x 200 256-color mode (mode 13H).

However, the Z-449 does not work correctly with several of the Microsoft Paintbrush graphics modes.

The following modes work correctly with the Z-449 and palette adjust:
