Hi,
I have a Trident TVGA9200CXR video card for a DX2 66. The graphics card works perfectly in DOS mode and with games like Doom/Wolf3D, it even works fine for installing Win3.11.
When loading Win3.11 I get the splash screen followed by the monitor showing a no signal message then going to sleep
Things I've tried so far:
* Multiple monitors (older 4:3/5:4 LCD and a couple of CRT's including an Eizo FlexScan that supports more modes than I can think of)
* Multiple drivers (Standard VGA/SVGA/Others that come with Win3.11, proper Trident drivers - the Trident installer requires Win3.11 but can still be installed via Windows setup and selecting disk)
I would have thought this was a driver/monitor support issue but it's not looking to be the case. The card has 1MB memory soldered and empty sockets for another 1MB, still plenty for the time and shouldn't cause errors with 16/256 colours.
Attached is a picture of the card from the ebay listing, there are a couple of jumpers on there - Could that be the problem?
It's likely been over 20 years since I've setup a VLB card so feel free to treat me as a novice 😁
