Thanks DTS for throwing me the challengeDTS wrote:After all that Metamorphosis did to make it easy...
I just had to get it working and I thrive on a challenge/puzzle*.Yep, got it working and with resolution and a little FOV adjustment I am running around in Quake Epsilon
* Did I mention here (?) my Samsung 24" monitor failed one day a couple of weeks ago and I went straight out to buy a couple more monitors (dual screen goodness I thought); bought 23" LED Samsungs.
Anyway, like I said I love a challenge so I googled as you do to find a probable fix.
I sent overseas for a capacitor repair kit for about $20.
It arrived so I fired up my old soldering iron to find it too dead
and the batteries had corroded in my trusty multimeter, so I couldn't read ohms, still it could read DC volts. Found my soldering iron open circuit so I went out an got %40 off a new 25watt at the local hardware.
Short is I replaced some suspect resistors (they were in the kit with 16 or so capacitors) first as the caps looked OK..
Blow me away..
My old & trusty SAMSUNG 245B LCD monitor works again.
I then packed up those 2 new monitors for next time
Feels good
