Hi all,
I have gotten an ISA videocard in my 386 that has a Tseng4000AX chip with 1Mb of video memory. It works well with the exception of the colors being overly saturated and bright. In some games it is unusable as almost everything is white. There is also an yellowish tinge in the white text when I only have the DOS command prompt being displayed.
Is this a know issue with Tseng chips/cards? A simple visual inspection does not show anything damaged and there are no DIP switches other than usual normal ones on the ISA cards at the time. Any idea what could be wrong? I assume there is something wrong with the RAMDAC. Also I am connecting it to a LCD. Would that make a difference?
Regards,
Vlad.
