Thanks for the link pkScary; it was really informative. I think I might have to rebuild mine. Maybe I'll put a bunch of outputs on it... SCART, S-Video, Composite and the like.

...or maybe I'm just too lazy. That's probably it.

i was wondering bput the 74HC241 too.. is it absolutly nessesary?

i'm in ireland and it's very difficult to get components like that, if i need it i probably have to order from the uk and that can get icky with postage costs so i'd avoid that if i could...

anyhelp?

I was made VGA BOX but I have one problem, monitor's image shakes!!! like a little waves from up to down. Why that happens?
Screen menu appears, with an High Resolution, but I put any game (Sonic Adventure 2, Capcom VS SNK 2, Street Fighter 3, Virtua Tennis 2k2) & no one is visible, screen still black.

Help me please

Can some one help . I made a vga box and it works but there is a problem. the screen comes out blue and dark, I can see the graphics. I didnt use the capacitors that go with the red, green, and blue signals. coul that be the problem? can someone tell me what kind of capacitors are needed. I also connected the RGB and vga pins of the dc together and ground them, is that the right thing to do. Please I need help. Thanks

Ack, you didn't need to dredge up this topic. Oh well, anyway, yes you need to follow a schematic closely. The one I saw called for 220uf.

Wow that is a big bump

Post by **Roofus** » Sun Oct 10, 2004 4:09 pm

No kidding. A 35-year old topic.

riva16 · Post by **riva16** » Sun Oct 17, 2004 7:45 pm

I just remembered... The easiest way to add a VGA Box into the modem case AND using the plug is to use all the blank pins... The pins that don't do anything... There's a modem port pinout somwhere that tells you what all pins are blank and do nothing... You could just wire accordingly by running wire fromt he AV Out throught he system tot he modem plug intot he VGA box int he modem case...! Easy...

You bumped this topic just to ask that? It was a proplem with the forum at one stage, most topics were fixed but a few got away.

Null or offtopic could've quite easily answered this question.
