ArcadeVGA2 DVI Port to Flat Panel TV
« on: November 08, 2010, 06:05:31 pm »
I'm hoping someone can help me out with this. hopefully I'm missing something simple.
On my ArcadeVga2 (AGP) card, I'm trying to hook up the DVI port (through a vga convertor) to the VGA input on a Proscan Lcd Tv.
other devices including my Dreamcast and Laptop vga out, show up fine but I keep getting "No Support" when I try to hook up my Avga2.
I have tried a bunch of different res settings and refresh rates.
Even when I tried using the s-video out from the card, it showed no support.

any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks

sounds like the problem i had, a digital monitor works fine off the dvi port on the avga card, but an analouge monitor wont run (off the dvi port with an adaptor),

there are some drivers at http://www.ultimarc.com/avgadrivers.html
there's one specificaly for people who want to use only an anolouge monitor on the dvi port of the card, i.e. no digital monitor and no arcade monitor on the vga output.

but i just go the standard drivers for my os (xp) and it worked, the ones on the disc didnt.

yeah but I was able to use another analog monitor on the dvi port (with adaptor)

I'll check out the drivers at Ultimarc, thanks
