Soft-15KHz - slim new tool for 15KHz on normal vga cards
franklin_jackson:
Hi SailorSat.
First off thank you so much for soft 15kHz. Outstanding work.
My question, what process in widows is running soft 15kHz? I know soft 15kHz begins when windows starts (XP in my case), but what is the actual process that windows initializes to begin running soft 15kHz.
I am looking to shell into the soft 15kHz process and then on to my front end.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
SailorSat:
Err... Actually none.
Soft-15kHz is only active after you doubleclick the exe, until you close it.
It modifies the display driver itself.

Hi SailorSat,
Thanks so much for the reply. I am kinda new at the whole 15khz / arcade monitor thing and I greatly appreciate the help. Here is where I am at. I am pretty much done with my build (an old Die Hard Arcade cab with working original monitor).
Soft 15khz combined with the jpac have worked awesome. I want to finish by hiding windows xp as I have done in my other builds using instantsheller (other builds did not use an original arcade monitor).
In short I, want to instantshell into a ahk .exe that runs soft 15khz then hyperspin (or another frontend in case someone else wants to do the same thing).
Your thoughts?
Thanks again.
SailorSat:
You don't need to run Soft-15kHz once it is installed. It works as soon as windows loads the display driver (long before any shell kicks in)

Thank you so much and have a wonderful day.
