Display out of Sync

Hi There,

I've got a carputer running in my BF XR6 Turbo. Here's a couple of pictures -

Everything is working fine (MP3, DVD, GPS) but the display is screwed up, this is what I've got -

The display is vehicle specific - it has to be 640x480 resolution with a refresh rate of 60 Hz (which is what I have it set to)

The display has to be in NTSC, but I've got my VGA cable running into the factory input which seems to work OK with the Red/Blue/Green signal, perhaps the Sync is wrong (I have connected the H-Sync with the V-Sync to make a combined Sync signal)

Any ideas on where I have gone wrong??

Thanks,
Panda

Possibly the issue is the combined H/V Sync, but I couldn't tell you for sure. Can you adjust the rates on the VGA signal in software?

I have found this diagram to combine H-Sync with V-Sync properly, but it's a bit above my ability

I cannot adjust much on the video card, have looked at every possible option. Will have to keep looking.

Thanks,

I've finally resolved the issue with the split screens - I bought an Arcade VGA card and it works perfectly.

I can now see POST, BIOS, startup screen, welcome screen - everything.

If you are trying to install a carputer in a BA - BF Falcon, get the Arcade VGA card, you won't regret it.
