Powerstrip writeup
FrizzleFried:
Nice...that will help with my HTPC. My cabinet runs fine with the AVGA I use...but I still use Pstrip to center my picture at 640x480...and if Powerstrip flakes out, it's not a big deal...the picture is about 1/2" to the right.
The HTPC just goes black.

i thought i should mention power strip works fine for 640x480i arcade setting..
but the resolutions mentioned in this thread SUCK!!
why because none of them work!!
i copied and pasted the settings and it makes my monitor go on the blink..
i am using a jpac and a tnt vanta and it works great without the freakish resolutions mentioned in this thread...
Silver:
Well most likely either:
1) Your monitor is quite fussy about the exact frequency it needs, and some of the resolutions are out of this range (unlikely)
2) the Tnt Vanta does not support custom resolutions and hence powerstrip can not create the resolutions correctly (quite likely I think - check the supported cards list on the powerstrip website
3) You are using a jpac which could be messing with the resolution/syncs. I do not know the range of frequencies the jpac will alter and/or pass.

Okay....so then if I get a Betson or WG D9400 (or maybe a Billabs that is pentamode - xga), and I use my stock card:
1) what will it be noticably missing?
2) am I going to hurt it without using an avga, or/and advmame?
FrizzleFried:
Just a bump as I am tired of seeing TRANQ's name on the post list...
