Soft-15KHz - slim new tool for 15KHz on normal vga cards
TheGunslinger:
Thanks SaliorSat, I will look for an ATI card around the house, I think I have one. If not, can you tell me where I can purchase the EDID dongle?
The Big Man:
Hey sailorsat, I tried what you suggested, uninstalling soft15khz and reinstalling/rebooting, didn't make any difference but I have noticed something else, when I lost sync I tried unplugging the power to the arcade monitor and when I plugged it back in hey presto sync was restored! Now i'm pretty sure that this means its the arcade monitor thats causing the problem but I really don't know enough about them to determine whats wrong, some kind of ac power fault maybe as killing the power and turning back on seems to fix it?
SailorSat:
Okay that sounds kinda reasonable.
Thats the downside of using old arcade screens. They never were meant to change resolutions every 5 minutes.
The Big Man:
It may be old tech but its a brand new Pentranic monitor i've recently installed, guess its just not meant to be.
