Powerstrip writeup
Silver:
Technically, I don't think Powerstrip supports the ArcadeVGA. Although the hardware is similar to a radeon, it is not the same - so powerstrip identifies incorrectly as a radeon.
Obviously, some settings appear to work but don't stick. You could post on the powerstrip website, but I have seen others do so and the reply is usually "It's not supported".
Email Andy at Ultimarc and see if he has any suggestions.
Popcorrin:
Occasionally when I start my computer and powerstrip starts it comes up with a warning message saying something along the lines of "Powerstrip did not start or close properly, would you like to adjust your settings?". When this warning pops up it requires you to choose no for powerstrip to start.
I was wondering if this warning message can be disabled because it can be quite a nuisance. I am using powerstrip to output 640x480i and the display doesn't become interlaced until powerstrip loads. If this warning pops up, powerstrip doesn't load, and there is no image on my screen. I then have to get out a keyboard and a computer monitor and hook it up to my arcade machine in order to bypass this warning message.
FrizzleFried:
I believe that message only appears when you power down suddenly without going through the shutdown process. At least that is when I notice the message on my HTPC. If you shut down normally, there shouldn't be an issue.
Popcorrin:
I know, but there are times when the game has to be shut off hard due to it freezing up or something of that nature and I want to disable the message for the reasons I stated earlier.
Popcorrin:
I found the solution. In the pstrip.ini put "NoSafetyChecks=1".
