Amiga 3000 and LCD Help
« on: March 21, 2012, 03:56:29 AM »
I'm trying to get my 3000 to work with a westinghouse 2220HW LCD.

I thought it would just come up if I plugged it into the 3000 vga port.  I even tried to get it working on the Retina Z3 and played by the screen modes...

Any ideas?

First, make sure that the switch is enabled in the back.
Second, I'm not sure what resolution you are running, but it looks like it will not work in PAL 50Hz mode. Minimum is 56Hz.

Hope it helps.

I had a similar(ish) problem.

DCE ScanMagic would only work with one of my LCD monitors and only if I set the Amiga to NTSC and the display was not nice at all. Lots of vertical lines.

Picasso II with Picasso mode set would not work either with my LCD's.

Got a cheap SD/FF off ebay and all my miggies work with ALL my LCD's and even the Picasso modes seem to work fine with the LCD's too.

This LCD must be a piece of junk.  Wouldn't recommend the L2220HW, it doesn't even come up on the standard Amiga 3k video (NTSC), tried a bunch of cybermodes off the z3 and that didn't work either.  Works just fine on this Peg II with MOS.

Funny Morphos uses a newer version of cybergraphix and it works fine.

Strange...
