So far we programmed the VGA card using mode 13h, which gave us 256 colors at 320x200 pixels. That mode is easy to program, but has very little features. No scrolling, no page flipping. Animating things is pretty hard or flickery at times using this mode. Most games that used the VGA card used a different, undocumented mode: it was called Mode X.
