CRT Emudriver + WIN10 + Radeon X1550
javiso85@gmail.com:
Hi have a pc with windows 10 and I installed and old PCIe Radeon X1550, after the clean installation, I try to install the CRTemudriver, but it do not detect the card.
Why CRT emudriver don't detect the card.
I have searched for the old 1.2b driver but the 64bit version does not admit the x1550, only the 32bit driver version of 1.2b
May be this card is not compatible with CRT emudriver 2.0?
Calamity:
In the Windows world, video cards and Windows versions are linked.
The X1150 is a DirectX 9 card, this means it's a Windows XP card.
If you want to use that card, you'll need to install Windows XP, and use CRT Emudriver for Windows XP (check first if the card was actually supported).

Many thanks Calamity,
So I will install windows xp32 bit and install 1.2b drivers to test the VGA.
I wanted to use this card on WIN10 because I have problems with the HD6970 and the 640x480i because is out of vertical sync, I posted here:

I am renewing my old pc with QuadCore because I can not run 3D games like, radikal bikers, rave racer, tekken, etc... And I am not getting good results. I have buyed a Radeon 5450 like on your tutorial to test it on WIN10

I think it would be very unusual for CRT_emulator+win10+HD6970 to not work with your Hantarex because of sync. Especially if you are getting a picture otherwise.
Just read your other post, and also the one from 2010 that one links to.
Think your solution is already there:

"Hantarex monitors are very particular about how they like the sync signal. There are a couple of different versions of this monitor. If yours has the two seperate white header connectors the sync AND ground will go to the 3 pin connector (H sync and ground only will be connected to this connector). R-G-B will go to the usual 6 pin connector, but not the ground"
So I need to figure out which of the 3 is the H sync and ground.
...
Oh, now I understand. Thanks. I think the 3 pins are identical to the rightmost 3 of the 6. So they're the ground / Vsync / Hsync. I'll double check tonight.
...
For any one who comes upon this in the future, my problem was that my monitor is a weird variation of the 9110. R G and B go on the 6 pin section, and ground HSync and VSync go on the three pin. This is because the ArcadeVGA sends negative sync signals. If they were positive, they would all go on the 6 pin. As soon as I switched the my ground and syncs to the three pin, everything synced easily.

That's a real gift from the past as Ken has already passed :'(
If all that doesn't work, or you don't have the 3-pin connector, but you are outputting proper composite sync with CRTEMU, try shorting your Hsync to the Vsync pin. The Vsync period is much longer than the H, hopefully the monitor can work out the difference and lock onto it.
Zebidee:
Another idea is to just restrict mode generation to 60hz, or perhaps use the NTSC preset. Maybe the monitor is just very fussy.
