Good to know, you found the issue of the D3D version of Dungeon Keeper. I don't need V-Sync, for me the 3.70 driver should be the best, because of Colin McRae Rally. DIRECTX-PACKAGES 5.2 and 6.1 4.10.00.1555 DirectX-Driver - No Refreshrate-Controls (hztool does not work either) - vsync in ddraw OK - …

Ok, i checked the DX-driver with a clean install and you're right. There are no monitor settings. I have to figure a way around the KeperD3D problem. I noticed that overlays are different between the drivers. There is also a 4.12 driver. You could try, if it will fix this issue. The driver packages …

AFAIK the latest VBIOS is version 1.8. If i have time in the next days, i will do a clean install and recheck if the DX6.1-driver has the monitor settings. Probably can you mix the driver files? MGAPDX64.INF Installation support file MGAPDX64.DRV MGA Win95 display driver MGAPDX64.VXD MGA miniVDD …

My system is not clean. It was in the last time very experimental and it doesn't shutdown. Maybe there is the problem? Can you try driver 3.70? And are you using the latest VBIOS?

I had also to lower the refresh rate for 512x384 from 85 hz to 60 hz. You can do this in the monitor properties. Choose MGA-Monitor and edit an Default Monitor. Btw. i checkedthe DX-Driver. It's version 3.51. I don't have GTA 2 🙁

I'm using the Mystique 220 with the driver which is provided in the DirectX 6.1 package. It should be similar to version 3.70. I'm using this, because is has not the slowdown issue with Colin McRae Rally on the main menu. The ,,README" on the game disc says, that driver version 3.82 works properly …

Today i got them. Both are working fine under Windows XP and Windows 7 64 Bit. Sadly they have the same problems. But i found a solution for this ghosting issue. The solution is to set the Yadif Deinterlacing filter at capturing. Before, i tried to deinterlace the video after capturing. That takes …

Thank you for the added details, I had indeed misunderstood . My hands-on experience with 240p/288p is practically non-existent and a long way behind me . That being said, what you are describing does look like the capture card reacting badly to what the console is outputting . Maybe a field being …

I would instead suggest getting an OSSC and hooking that up to a modern capture card. If you connect your PS1 to the OSSC using a RGB SCART cable, you will get pristine footage. This is a very expensive option. Btw. i like the retro look of using composite or s-video. There is likely nothing wrong …

Hi, i'm searching a capture card which is compatible with the PS1 video modes. Mainly i use cheap USB video grabbers. I used different models with different chipsets but they have all a problem. When i capture at 352x288 it works fine, but i have missing lines. This can be seen at fonts. But when i …

That's difficult. I think they had 2 arms and a body. Also they were more detailed. The orange tone was more like Crash Bandicoot. EDIT: The background was black and it's possible that only the faces were on the front cover. EDIT2: Added an embrassing painting from the front cover. I painted it with …

Matrox Mystique emulation would be interesting for running supported games with MSI (Matrox Simple Interface). Also the bundled games would be running and perform better than on real hardware. And the Mystique has a very unique graphic look, because of it's missing 3D features.
