Help needed
« on: December 05, 2003, 07:41:15 PM »
System : a1200
Expansion : Zorro / Apollo 1260 / 66

Problem : I have a CV64/3D Card which does not display anything at all. There doesn't seem to be a power signal going ot the monitor. However I can view the hardware details from the OS when my monitor is plugged into the standard video. Does anyone have any ideas that could help?

Ok then let me add further to my problem. The card is one made by DCE, it's NOT plugged into one of the Fast Z2 slots on the busboard. I have install the software that came with the card. Hopefully I've saved a screenmode that the card can display.  Shouldn't the card be sending a monitor on feed once the Amiga is powered up? Or does the card need to be driven before it send's out a signal to the monitor?

Anyone got a spec. simular to me out there?

Thanks to everyone for the advise, will have a go tonight hopefully. I may well rebuild the system as I've got a number of hacks installed, they may be causing me problems. Nothing better than starting from scratch is there now.

Well I rebuilt the system last night, just the OS and installed the CV64/3D software. Selected a screen mode from the prefs and rebooted. This get nothing from the card?

Is there anything I need to do to the jumpers on the bus board, I take it I don't need the video slot enabler or do I?

Still playing with my problem. Tried using the software on the OS3.5 CD and got my monitor to power up last night. So I think I'm getting closer having a working CV64/3D, does anyone have a working Monitor file that I could try out?

Also found that installing the software break my CD-ROM driver, has anyone had this before?

Problem sorted out. I found the VESA settings for the modes. I now have a fully working CV64/3D using Picasso96.
