GeForce 4 MX440 with an arcade monitor
« on: December 06, 2002, 11:55:51 am »
Hi group!!

I have a hacked arcade cabinet playing mame games in DOS mode.
It's very nice but I want to play other emus that run in (buah) Win.
Somebody have this configuration (GeForce4 + Arcade Monitor) and can run Windos in the cabinet?

Please, tell me how, I'm very,very interesting.

ThanXX.

Are you really? tell me a story, then...  =P

You could try a utility like powerstrip to try and force down your video card to display at a resolution/frequency that it would like in windows.... check over the in the monitors/video forum for a thread called "arcade monitor on windows project"

You could also wait for Andy Warnes soon to be released fancy video card specially made for just this application -> although that'd leave you with an extra geforce =P

good luck!

Ok.
But how can you get an Horizontal refresh at 15 KHz with a Vertical Refresh at 60 KHz??

I don't want to move the pots of the monitor ever I change Win/Dos modes.

FYI powerstrip is a SOFTWARE tool for adjusting video settings...

check over in the Monitor/Video forum as this has been discussed there alot... there's no true consensus on how to do it at this point...

one thread

and THIS LINK will be the most helpful I think
good luck...
