Setting up the AteoBus and Pixel 64

Smiley · 13 June 2006, 16:14

Hi, I recieved my Ateo busboard today.

I have managed to get it all set up hardware wise basically except for a few glitches.

Also does anyone have any ideas as to how I should mount the busboard inside the infintiv case?

The backplates are sideways on the infinitiv so the only option is to mount the busboard on the side panel of the case. Which isnt realistic. The other option is to just mount it on the bottom of the case and pull the wire for the monitor through a large backpanel and actually put it inside the case. This is the option im going to use for the timebeing.

Anyway so far I have it nearly all attached and my accelerator is working fine attached to the adapter board, except it wouldnt fit without removing the fan so its just a heatsink with a loose fan I can probably squeeze in somewhere.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Ok now Im thinking that I dont need the power connector as that is for Ateo towers.

I have a pc monitor attached to the pixel 64 and I have installed picasso96, ateostart, pixel64

I turn the amiga on and the monitor blinks on, I try and edit the screenmode using the picasso96 prefs but it says out of memory but even when it does work the screen is too big for the TV so I cant read the whole form.

I cannot work out how to do all this....

EDIT: Ok I booted up with a monitor attached to the pixel64, changed the screenmode to picasso96 800x600 PC and rebooted......on monitor flicks on saying signal out of range and then cable not connected.

EDIT #2: Upon trying all the different picasso96 screenmodes none of them work.

My monitor just gives a cable is not connected message.

EDIT #3: Turns out I need a ATX to AT power converter. =\
