Sync-on-Green cables only work with Sync-on-Green monitors. If you connect a Sync-on-Green cable to a non-Sync-on-Green monitor, you simply wont see a picture.

However, what I was saying is that Sync-on-Green cables are easy to make, and you can try one on your projector to make sure the problem is not associated with your other cable.

NOTE: The picture will be perfect (correct colors, correct sync, etc.) with a Sync-on-Green cable as long as your monitor supports it.

OK i think I have made a bit more progress in diagnosing the problem. When I run the NKPatcher.xbe I thought it was meant to just go to a black screen and then you have to go manually restart the xbox with the power button.

But now I am getting the impression that once you run NKPatcher it should automatically reboot to your dashboard after it has completed patching. Am I correct in saying this?

If that is true then I assume the NKPatcher isn't fully patching my bios or not doing it correctly which would explain the vga code not working properly.

Please, anyone that has experienced this or has any ideas that might work please dont hesitate to reply.

Cheers

NKPatcher is actually part of the boot-up process, you cannot run the file alone. If you have Krayzie's NDURE, you will find a file on your REAL C: drive called bios.xbe, you need to delete that file and then rename the new NKPatcher I gave you to bios.xbe and copy it into where the original was.

NOTE: The bios.xbe file on C: is actually just another version of NKPatcher without VGA support, so all you have to do is rename the new one you got from me and then replace the old one.

FROSTY I LOVE U SO MUCH RIGHT NOW  love.gif

Also I feel like such a n00b because I thought that NKPatcher only had to be run once. Now I realize that it patches on-the-fly when the xbox boots.

OMG this is perfect. Frosty thanks for not losing ur patience with this and sticking with me. I owe u big time now.
