Millenium G200 - VGA TV converter

[ABrito]

I own a old Millennium matrox g200. I would like to convert the output VGA to TV, I did already the hardware to mix hor and vert sync. But to convert VGA in PAL I also need to configure the driver (put the right horizontal and vertical frequencies), I saw in a web page (http://www.hut.fi/Misc/Electronics/c...matrox_tv.html) how to do it, with the Matrox Win95 drivers (version 3.11), but at this moment I have installed the driver 6.82.016 with OS Me.

I tried to uninstall the current driver and install an old one, but it caused so many problems that I give up.

Is there anyone who could help me in configure the driver version 6.82.016(monitor settings in order to have the correct frequencies for system PAL).

Thanks in advance

ps: example for driver 3.11 PAL TV

[User-Defined.PAL]
640X480 = I, *User-Defined_PAL_,(640X480)

[*User-Defined_PAL_,(640X480)]
PIXEL_CLK = 14319
H_DISP = 640
H_FPORCH = 80
H_SYNC = 40
H_BPORCH = 160
H_SYNC_POL = 1
V_DISP = 240
V_FPORCH = 35
V_SYNC = 5
V_BPORCH = 30
V_SYNC_POL = 1
INTERLACE_ENABLE = 1

wouldn't it be a lot easier if you pruchased the TV output addon for your Millennium ?

Hi Maggi,

I believe that product, tv-out, has been phased-out. And instead of purchase a upgrade I would prefer to buy a new graphic card with tv-out, but at this moment I can't.

Despite this, my money problems, I think that is very interesting to full understand how a graphic card works and how to change settings that, once, with older drivers were available, and with newest drivers I don't know how to do it.

Any way thanks for your tip.
