Elite 3D and PC monitor

807557Sep 18 2006 — edited Nov 29 2006

Hello.

I have a Blade 1000 with an Elite 3D card.

The problem is: The PC monitor I use does not support "composite sync".

When using "afbconfig" to switch from one resolution to another (must be a different resolution) the video output is changed to "separate sync" if the new resolution is a VESA resolution.

In the startup scripts I already do so (switching to a resolution I do not want and then switching to the resolution I want).

The remaining problem is: I want to see the OpenBoot prompt or at least single-user startup (if the system had crashed before).

The card seems NOT to change its output when changing the resolution in the OK prompt.

Is there any possibility to change the video output to "separate sync" from the OK prompt?

Thanks.
Martin
