Soft-15KHz - slim new tool for 15KHz on normal vga cards
gaijin4life:
Partial success!
I uninstalled Soft15khz, then the prior matrox driver, and installed the new matrox driver (called "final" on their site), then rebooted, then reinstalled soft15khz, then rebooted but the image was still visible on the LCD. I had to go into matrox's monitor adjust controls and select 60 for the refresh manually then the lcd went out and soft15khz seemed to kick in.
I can SEE the windows desktop fine (well blurry, but overall okay) now on the WG7602. However, then I try to run mame (neogeo roms on mamepp), it says the requested video mode is unavailable and Direct3D failed. I'm running DirectX8. Seems like I'm pretty close.
SailorSat:
Either set Direct3D Version to 8 in MAME, or try DirectDraw.
gaijin4life:
MAME was setting itself to version 8 automatically (at least it reported that in "-verbose" mode), so I'll give DirectDraw a shot. Thanks for getting me this far so that the Soft15Khz is working!
SailorSat:
Now that I think of it...
I don't think the (ancient) Millenium II does support Direct3D 8 either, so DirectDraw is the way to go.

Sailor can you post some additional usermodelines that you use for mame?
