I can't remember what VGA card was in a Jensen, Compaq Qvision?
Yes, that is correct.
I also
don't remember running VMS/OSF on a graphics head on one of those so it
might not be supported. You need to be in AlphaBIOS to install NT anyway,

(this is from rusty memory, YMMV etc, Jensen was also a DEC 2000-300)
Already tried it from the AlphaBIOS and I get the same error. The VGA output
varies from all grey, to black and white vertical stripes, to a screen full
of "@" symbols.
