My wife's job was handing out computers. I snagged an iPAQ. It's nothing major, just a PIII 1.0GHz with onboard graphics. Intel chipset. I'm writing from it right now.
I'm attempting to get this thing into 15KHz with a picture I can display. It's not been easy. I was going to use Soft15KHz, but it doesn't support Intel chipsets. :( So I thought to try PowerStrip.
I've found the part where I can change the clock speed to 15.75 KHz, and it appears to go into this rate. But instead of syncing @ 60Hz it says 30Hz, and I can't change one without affecting the other.
I'm stumped. I knew this was tricky, but not *this* tricky.
I've read the stickied setup guide, but it didn't help much.
Heck, getting Mame to run on this thing has been a challenge alone. No matter what I do it's running too fast. but one bridge at a time!

I'm so close...I can't get it to sync in just the right spot...

Why don't you just throw in an old rage - I thought you had several around - and use Vantage or whatever?

Special PC with NO slots at all. Everything is onboard. Otherwise I would have done that by now. It's a Compaq iPAQ. Has an Intel chipset.
It certainly appears that the chipset will do 15KHz. I can *ALMOST* get it to sync, but I'm just a tiny bit off, as you can see in the pic.

Any update on this?

I bet he's been busy with halloween preparations.

Yep, I haven't touched it.
SailorSat says this chipset supports 15KHz but it's not in his program (yet). I can't get the right settings using PowerStrip.

I'm also thinking I need to try another monitor. I was using a K4600 before. Though I've had no problems with an ATI card and a JPAC, and of course regular JAMMA boards work fine.
Okay, so maybe not. :)

Fixed.

No kidding; I had no idea.
