About to throw in the towel trying to crt emudriver to just work and need help.
Customcade:
Been trying for weeks now and actually getting angry at this point...
Follow the directions and only get black screen or garbled non sense each attempt.
I am running a dell 9020 SFF pc tower with and R7 240 video card with display port and dvi outputs.
Have the wells gardner 39" k7600 showcase monitor and it's set at 15k and ran to the PC with a vga cable that connects to the dvi adapter/converter.
I select display 1 for dvi VM sees the driver
I set it to standard 15k arcade
Enable EDID then lose display on my dell pc monitor hot swap over to the 39" wells gardner monitor and it's just a black screen.
I did something in the settings where I uncheck a box and it gave me a garbled up display but nothing I can work with.
Do I need to tick the composite sync box to enable it or pick the wells gardner k7000 option instead of standard 15K
I have no clue at this point, old pc had a AGP ultimarc arcadevga connected to the same vga cable currently on the monitor and it installed with ease and worked flawless for 20 years with no issue.
I can't this to work no matter what I do I even have two of the same cards one stock and one with atom 15 either work for me lol

As far as I am aware, the R7 240 card has DVI-D, which does not support analog RGBHV signal outputs.
You have the SFF version of the card, which unfortunately does not have a VGA video head. HOWEVER, it should have a 12-pin header, near the top of the card, that supports a VGA connector (see pic).
So, one solution might be to find a VGA header with the 12-pin connector and use that. AFAIK the only reason the VGA head is not connected is to save space for the SFF profile. However, I don't know: will it then be available to select in Display Manager / VMMaker?
Another solution might be to use a VGA adapter from the DP port HDMI port. Someone else might have some adapter recommendations.
These are just suggestions from my armchair, I don't have an R7 240 card.
EDIT: I just noticed that your card doesn't have a DP port as you've claimed above - it is HDMI.

Thanks for your comment, Zebidee. That makes total sense then. The only part that I'm confused about is that Customcade says he loses display on his Dell PC monitor when enabling EDID emulation... how is that PC monitor connected? DVI-D?

I assume so, can't see how else :dunno
Customcade, check this out, a VGA D-sub with ribbon cable, 12-pin header and comes with a SFF slot bracket - seems designed for your needs. You could plug it in and use a spare slot for the VGA analog output.

I missed typed I have the R5 240
It has a display port and DVI but not sure what DVI type.
I have different adapters for both dvi and display port to VGA,HDMI but also only have the DVI-I type and not a straight up analog DVI-A.
