Trouble with LCD monitor and Amiga 3000
« on: June 09, 2012, 07:17:06 PM »
I can't get my VGA LCD monitor (Acer L1716) to work with an A3000. Any tips to make it work will be appreciated.

I hooked up my small Shinco HD TV with VGA connection and it works but the apps bar colors are fuzzy.

This is a duplicate thread.  You've already posted this question in another thread.

But to duplicate my answer, have you flipped the switch to enable the scan-doubler/flicker-fixer on the back of the A3000?

I did, but that didn't fix my problem.

It is working now with an old 1084S. I can't still get the LCD to work.

Are you sure the ouput of the vga on the a3k is good? Does it work with another monitor?

Yes, I am using an Amiga 1084S monitor, connected with a VGA 15-pin cable.

some monitors will not work as the Amiga refresh rate is too low, sucks but I've had the same problem even with my picasso II
