| Computer built, emulators running - now I discover a problem |
| (1/2) > >> |
| Jasonlyvers:
I have everything built and running with my frontend (HS). My problem: I'm using Win 7 64 bit, and soft 15 appears to not work on Win 7. I'm using integrated graphics (which works fine). Here are my options: * Switch to XP 64 bit, install soft 15 (can I still run with integrated graphics, or do I need a GPU?) * This would require a JPAC * Sell my arcade monitor, drop in a 27" TV and use an HDMI to Composite converter * I think the JPAC is out since there is no arcade monitor, would need to switch to an IPAC? Any other ways to fix this issue? What would YOU do? |

Why would switching OS require you to get a JPac ? |

I think he build/configured a pc using a normal 31KHz screen. Now he wants to put that pc into a cabinet and (obviously) he needs a pc_to_jamma connector. IMHO the best choice is to buy a jpac/jammasd and eventually a graphic card and use soft15khz. If you wanna use a normal tv, then I suggest to build a vga_to_scart cable for better video result. |

I appreciate the quick responses. --- Quote from: CheffoJeffo on February 07, 2012, 07:54:20 am ---Why would switching OS require you to get a JPac ? --- End quote --- Sorry, wasn't clear. Switching doesn't require it - I have to buy it if use an arcade monitor. If I don't, I can skip it and use an iPac to hook up my controls and send the signal to the TV directly. --- Quote from: Ansa89 on February 07, 2012, 08:04:33 am --- IMHO the best choice is to buy a jpac/jammasd and eventually a graphic card and use soft15khz.

I'm a little tired of building and tweaking. I'm way over budget already - I can run everything I play on integrated graphics, so the card is only required to support Soft 15 - price is a definite concern at this point. |

ATI radeon HD4850 or ATI radeon HD5450 or ATI radeon 9200. I know these cards to work well with linux, so I think they are good also for soft15khz. |
