Okay, so I'm attempting to resurrect a system (that someone else built) in which the original mobo went bzzzzzt. The system originally used an AGP ArcadeVGA, but since that specification no longer really exists, I bought a shiny new ArcadeVGA 3000 and shiny new mobo, proc, and all the rest. Okay, so here's where the difficulty comes in:
I don't know how to configure the AVGA/JPAC combo to work with the monitor. It's a 33" Wells-Gardner monitor, one which I know for a fact can handle low res (eg., 256x256)
and higher res (eg., 800x600). Yes, I said 800x600. Anyway, it's not a D9200, since that has a nice VGA port on the back and a convenient OSD for adjusting stuff. No, I'd have to adjust some potentiometers in back to change anything not on the remote PCB (which handles brightness, contrast, h size, h pos, v size, & v pos).
I tried looking on the WG site, but the only 33" monitor listed there is the D9200 - which, again, this doesn't appear to be. I also tried using their Serial# lookup, but apparently, my unit's a secret agent.

With the JPAC's 15 and 31 kHz jumpers set, the best I can get through the AVGA card is a divided image (as in the first attachment). No other jumper configuration seems to work. Like, at all. The funny thing is that the LCD monitor I have hooked to the DVI port works flawlessly, displaying all the wonderful low resolutions I bought the card for.
Oddly, however, I can get a rather nice picture out of Soft15 and an old Radeon HD4800 I had lying around. With the JPAC's jumpers on 15 and 31 or just on 15, 640x480 shines through all pretty like. 800x600 displays, but it can't get v-sync, so it just rolls and rolls and rolls. And that through a DVI-VGA adapter, no less. I'd make do with that, but Soft15 doesn't give as many res options as the AVGA card does, and were it not for the fact that I know this screen can display 800x600.
So I come to you, oh wise and learned members of this forum. What am I doing wrong with the AVGA that is preventing it from sending the proper signal to the arcade monitor? I mean, it doesn't appear to be a JPAC issue, since the display works fine with Soft15.
Halp!
