CV 64/3D scandoubler?
« on: July 18, 2006, 06:50:39 PM »
Please tell me, is the CV 64/3D scandoubler supposed to show early boot menu/ kickstart screen? (no HDD or other cards attached.) I need to know as soon as possible.



PS.
How can I test it and card itself to see if its working from a floppy disk?


Better sorry than worry.

Damn, its dead :-(
Is it ok to just leave it plugged in even if its broken? (non 15khz modes work fine)

Its towerized A4000, and veryvery hard to remove all cards.

(The previous owner sold me Amiga with CV 64/3D installed and scandoubler separately, should have suspected it, oh well..)

Yes, there are two jumpers and each one consists of three small ones that I guess should all be either on or off.
I have played with them, they should selecet output connector, but nothing..

So, would it be ok to just leave it as it is, inside working Amiga?

The manual says jumpers select output port.

BTW, I have seen here that CV 64 is faster than CV64 3D, but how much faster? Is it really noticable in simple tasks? Are there any benchmarks?
