[SOLVED] HD4890 calamity Driver Issue
epicfatigue:
Hello all wondering if anyone has had this issue?
I have installed the latest drivers from
http://mame.3feetunder.com/windows-ati-crt-emudriver/
However my 4890 shows as a 4980 when its installed. (odd)
Anyways when i hook up my monitor to it once its installed, the arcade monitor is hating it, (not 15khZ)
Has anyone had this issue?
Really stumped, i removed it all and tryed just soft 15khz no go :(
my card has 3 ports DVI HDMI and component (svideo lookin conctor)
I am currently using a DVI to VGA adapter that the card came with.)
had this working fine with the x550
Calamity:
So did you get the driver installed or not? By the topic name I thought it refused to install.
epicfatigue:
Hey calamity sorry yes it installs however its saying its a 4980 ? thats what i ment by not installing.
about to have another crack.
Calamity:
That must be my typo when adding the chipset to the driver's inf, 4980 does not exist, but it doesn't matter. You can manually edit the name in the inf and install again, that should fix the name.
So did you set 640x480@60i with Arcade_OSD before rebooting with the arcade monitor attached?
epicfatigue:
Hey no i didn't i did that just then, (fixed the name not sure what caused that uninstall and reinstall fixed that)
I selected
reran the program still only 10 resolutions.
However none of them worked.
Turns out a faulty DVI to VGA adapter caused this the 10 work perfectly.
However i am very restricted my x550 gave me 200+ any ideas?
Thanks Calamity

; 1. MAME
; -------
; Path for Mame executable, in case we want to extract xml information from it.
MameExe = "D:\Emulators\groovy\mame.exe"
; Path for Mame ini folder, in case we want to create an ini file for each game.
; Important: existing ini files will be overwritten.
IniPath = "D:\Emulators\groovy\ini\"
; Mame options.
ListFromXML = 1 ; Processes Mame XML and get video mode list from it
GenerateXML = 1 ; Extracts XML from Mame (only needed once)
GenerateInis = 0 ; Creates an ini file for each Mame game, in the IniPath folder
SDLMame = 0 ; Use SDLMame specific options
; Monitor orientation
MonitorHorizontal = 1 ; 0 = Rotating monitor: horizontal and vertical games at their native resolution
; Suitable for users that physically rotate their CRTs
; 1 = Horizontal monitor: horizontal games run at their native resolution and
; vertical games are rotated to fit in horizontal monitor
RotatingDesktop = 0 ; Specifies if both desktop and monitor are rotated
; Aspect ratio for vertical games on horizontal monitor
; 4:3 (keeps original aspect ratio)
; 3:3 (stretches to square format)
; 3:4 (stretches to full screen)
; h:v (custom aspect ratio)
VerticalAspect = "4:3"
; 2. MONITOR
; ----------
; Monitor Type. Valid types: D9800, D9400, D9200, EGA, VGA, MULTI, H9110, PAL, NTSC, GENERIC, CUSTOM
MonitorType = "CUSTOM"
; Monitor CUSTOM. These values will be used if MonitorType = "CUSTOM"
;
; monitor_specs_0-6 = "HfreqMin-HfreqMax, VfreqMin,VfreqMax, HFrontPorch, HSyncPulse, HBackPorch, VfrontPorch, VSyncPulse, VBackPorch, HSyncPol, VSyncPol, ActiveLinesLimit, VirtualLinesLimit"
;
; * HfreqMin-HfreqMax: Minimum and maximum horizontal frequency, in Hz. Defines the range of horizontal frequencies the monitor is capable to sync.
; The higher the horizontal frequency, the higher the vertical resolution available for the same vertical refresh.
; The higher the horizontal frequency, the higher the vertical refresh available for the same vertical resolution.
; The higher the horizontal frequency, the lower the horizontal amplitude of active video (narrower picture).
;
; * VFreqMin-VfreqMax: Minimum and maximum vertical frequency, in Hz, Defines the range of vertical frequencies the monitor is capable to sync.
;
; * HFrontPorch, HSyncPulse, HBackPorch: Horizontal timing and geometry, values in µs
;
; * VfrontPorch, VSyncPulse, VBackPorch: Vertical timing and geometry, values in ms
;
; * HSyncPol,VSyncPol: polarities, not in use! defaults to negative.
;
; * ActiveLinesLimit: Vertical resolutions until ActiveLinesLimit value included, are generated as progressive, regardless the possibility
; of obtaining the required vertical refresh value.
;
; * VirtualLinesLimit: Vertical resolutions above ActiveLinesLimit and below VirtualLinesLimit are virtualized, that is, an interlaced resolution
; bigger that the native one is generated, with the right refresh, and "hardware stretch" is applied.
; Vertical resolutions above VirtulaLinesLimit are generated as interlaced, without any stretching.
;monitor_specs_0 = "15625-16200, 49.50-65.00, 2.000, 4.700, 8.000, 0.064, 0.160, 1.056, 0, 0, 288, 448"

; Tolerance for horizontal frequency, in kHz, enables extending the range defined by [ HfreqMin, HfreqMax ]
; The resulting allowed frequency range will be [ HfreqMin - HfreqTolerance, HfreqMax + HfreqTolerance ]
HfreqTolerance = 0.010
; 3. MODELINE GENERATOR
; ---------------------
; Total number of modelines to generate. Here are the recommended values for each driver version:
; CRT_Emudriver, based on Catalyst 6.5 XP32: 160 modes (accepts up to 200, but above 160 HyperSpin will refuse to load)
; CRT_Emudriver, based on Catalyst 6.5 XP64: 120 modes
; CRT_Emudriver, based on Catalyst 9.3 XP32/64: 120 modes (accepts some more but above 120 you can get some blue screens)
; Regular Catalyst: 60 modes (won't accept any more)
TotalModes = 120
; Method for mode table generation. If Mame xml is processed, that will create a lot of different video modes, so the mode table
; will be optimized keeping the most relevant ones, and dropping the rest, to keep below the TotalModes value.
ModeTableMethod = 1 ; 0 = Static table: modelines are generated keeping their original vertical refresh. This
; method is intended to be used in combination with ini files for each game.
; 1 = Dynamic table: a table of dummy modes is created using xres and yres values while ignoring
; vfreq. This method is intended to be used in combination with Switchres or Groovymame. No ini
; files are required using this method (you should disable the GenerateInis option).
; Minimum resolution values (these will be used instead of lower values)
XresMin = 184
YresMin = 192
; Minimum dotclock value allowed by the video card, in MHz (i.e. DotClockMin = 7.010)
DotClockMin = 0
; Number of iterations used by the mode generator [0,5]. The higher the number of iterations, the bigger the accuracy of the vertical
; refreshed obtained, normally at the cost of increasing the horizontal frequency strictly required.
Iterations = 0
; Specifies if the refresh label is multiplied by 10 before rounding (experimental).
VFreqLabelx10 = 0
; 4. DRIVER
; ---------
; Path for the driver folder
DriverPath = "C:\crt_emudriver_9.3_1.2a_x64_multisync\crt_emudriver_9.3_1.2a_x64\Driver\"
; If UpdateRegistry is enabled, UpdateDriver will only work if the driver version found in DriverPath matches the one installed
; in the system.
UpdateRegistry = 1 ; Specifies if the video card registry section will be updated with the new video modes
; (will only work in combination with CRT_EMUDriver).
UpdateDriver = 0 ; Specifies if the driver files in DriverPath will be updated with the new video modes, for
; future installations.
AnyCatalyst = 0 ; Allows modelines to be installed for any Catalyst version. This option is experimental and
; known to produce some problems.
