Electrohome G07 CB0 with ArcadeVGA from computer
« on: June 16, 2010, 05:13:04 pm »
Currently, I have my ArcadeVGA installed in my 2.8GHz P4 computer, I've hacked up my own vga cable, and I get a picture on my Electrohome G07 but only when it is doing the memory check/posting. Once it get's past the post screen, faintly the screen rolls horizontally and does not seem to get a picture whatsoever. I currently do not have the video amp, but if something shows up in the post screen, why doesn't anything happen in Windows?

Thanks in advance,
Xb0x3r

I hate bumping as much as the next guy, but I'm in need of ideas to at least try. If anyone needs any more information just ask. Please.

Thanks,

I will do my best to get a video to you guys tomorrow. I have an exam at 8:30 in the morning, but after that, I'll record something.

Sorry guys, I didn't get around to taking a video today. I have another exam at the same time tomorrow, so after that I'm done, so THEN I'll do it  :lol

After some more research, I decided to ditch the computer I was originally using and move to a different motherboard, mainly because the one I was using had integrated video.

I currently have an image on the monitor but the picture looks completely stretched, and I cant seem to figure out why the catalyst driver wont let me rotate the monitor 90 degrees. It just gives me an error saying: "The requested Rotation mode is not supported by your current display mode (resolution and/or refresh rate and/or colour depth). Please change the current display mode and try again."

Any ideas?

P.S. I'll put a couple pics of the stretching and the error tomorrow, I am exhausted right now.
