The LC outputs a combined sync so you cannot do this
with the on-board video.

You can if you're willing to spend more than your
whole LC
system is worth on a monitor adaptor that splits the
synch
signals. ;)
It will be total Fandemonium!
What settings did you use on the adapter? I have one of those
ViewSonic ones that they gave away for free...

Does your ViewSonic adapter have any details on it
about settings? Did it come with a manual? And most
importantly, does anyone know if these settings are

I'm looking out for a reasonably priced 15 lcd display because the
natural resolution is 1024 x 768. That should

BTW I modified the Radius card by first de-soldering the Mac video

I was wrong about it displaying resolution
options (at least under System 6), it just
defaults to 640 x 480.

I've got an original LC sitting right here next to me and it works
fine with a 20 Sony Trinitron, standard VGA connector. It runs it
at 640 x 480 x 8, to be sure, which makes for some really freaking
HUGE icons, but aside from that it works fine. The adaptor is one of
those suckers full of
onboard video, and thanks for the info about monitors.
I was plugging in a multisync AOC monitor. Guess I'll
be looking for a different adapter.

A few answers !
1. I am using onboard video, but was just educated
about early mac monitors. Guess I need an adapter for
my 14 inch AOC multisync.
2. RAM has never been upgraded from what was in it
when I purchased it. I have removed the chips to see
if a bad chip was the source of the problem.

A few questions.
1. Are you using onboard video or a card?
2. Have you upgraded the RAM lately?
3. Did you bump anything when you changed the battery?

Hi Marten,
I guess more ASCII-art is in order!:-)
Looking at the *back* of my LC that has the video jumper in place between

Pins are numbered from RIGHT to LEFT:

Hi Clark,
Pins 4 and 11, huh? That's quite interesting. My choice of shorting pins
7 and 10 was from information gleaned from Apple, at:

pin 7 and 10 work for me. Thanks, Bob. Now I can finally put my
fanless LC to work as a server. Since sleeper puts the hard disk to
snooze after only one minute it truly is a silent server that only
awakens when it is called for duty.

That is a control panel that allows you to have the hard disk set to
sleep automatically. This way you can reduce heat, noise and energy
usage.
