Mediator uses P96 instead of cybergraphics.
Software installation is indeed automatic.
Just run Medconfig after the installation to set all variabels right.
Read the docs supplied with the mediator cd.

Hi,
Do you have installed the MMCD upgrade to your mediator ???
if you don't you will notice such problems...
Try to do a clean reinstall of you OS, be sure to have well setted the jumpers, normally it should be easy to work !

thanks . i have installed p96 and made all the changes, i am now getting a blue monitor screen through the video card.

It is definately sending a signal as the monitor is active, there is now also no signal going through the 1200 motherboard video port

any ideas??

Boot with no startup sequence to get in to a PAL/NTSC screenmode from the Amiga's native output. Then run P96Mode (in prefs) to configure a working screenmode. You will know it is working because the testcard will be visible on your VGA monitor. Then go in to screenmode prefs and select this screenmode, and save it. Then reboot. And you should see Workbench on your VGA monitor.
