Been all over this board and the avsforum trying to find the information that SuckerFish references about setting up an ATI video card (9200SE - 256 MB with DVI Out) using a DVI-Component Video adapter.
I have loaded the latest Catalyst Drivers (5.1) and the latest PowerStrip - however - still cannot get the scan rate right - nor can I get the powerstrip advance settings to work. Tried setting to the arcade setting - however - it does not seem to take effect.
Is it possible that I am mistaken about the clarity of the video using component in? Is the video in XP will be crappy and the video in MAME is very good?
Seems like when I adjust the scan rates - I get to a point where no video at all will work - then I have to take the PC out of the cabinet and re-attach to my network to reset the video.
Seems like I'm very close to the getting the terrific video that people talk about - just close - yet no cigar.
Using a JVC AV27530 27" set in my cabinet.
Please - SuckerFish - show me the light ... I have been looking for over a week for the right thread.
Found the very long thread in the avforum - just cannot sift thru all the details to get the right settings.
Thanks again for the assistance.

Finally found it ..
Buried in a post - none the less - found the settings.

Currently in Ireland - when I get back to the US - I'll try the settings.
SuckerFish - any other items that we (others trying to obtain component video bliss) need to take into account?
Thanks in advance....

More questions -
What is the monitor setting for your enviroment?
Mine is set to Default Monitor - in the display properties?
Did you make ANY changes in the ATI Catalyst settings?
Thanks again
