anyone tried this card with crt_emudrive and groovymame?

i'm going to mount it on a Windows XP 64bit version linked to a Wells Gardner D9400.

Ah...i was forgetting...

1) this card has two  DVI port (no vga)
    Is a dvi<-->vga converter enought?

2) both DVI port can be used with crt_emudrive ?

I have no idea if it will work.  My understanding is that it is essentially two cards in one.  The older 9.3 Catalyst drivers that CRT_EmuDriver is based on supposedly support that card, but you'll probably have to give it try to make sure.

Yes, you need to use a DVI to VGA converter dongle.

Typically, only one port will work correctly with CRT_EmuDriver.  It's usually (but not always) the "bottom" port on the card (the one that is closest to the motherboard).
