Title: Other Monitors Not showing up
Post by: hamtronix on September 03, 2007, 08:26:40 PM

My system claims to be ECS but only NTSC and PAL show up in Devs/Monitors even though I moved a bunch in there. I am now running through my SD/FF into a NEC Multisync and the NTSC Interlaced is cool but I thought I would be able to access more modes. Am I missing something?

There are "half-ECS" systems with ECS agnus and OCS denise. These can only display PAL and NTSC.

I had such A500 (KS 1.3).

ah - ha. That is strange. I will have to determine if I have the odd Denise. Fairly certain I have the ECS Agnus as I have a 2MB Chip Mem (Megachip). So that would leave the Denise as culprit.

That's what I had, too  - until I got ECS Denise. And did really use Multiscan on WB  (4 cols) until got tower and PicassoII.
