Did you remove the others? Try DblNTSC instead of PAL. LCD monitors can sometimes not display dblPAL

DblPal normal is just 27.50kHz, with VGAOnly 29.45 kHz - what does your monitor support?

i have LG 17" LCD , now i can see the Dplpal , but when i am connecting the Lcd to the Adapter amiga dosent boot , i cannot hear Hardisk running .
just i removed the monitor without removing the adapter amiga runs fine.
i have Tv connected to my amiga on other side .

regards

are you sure that adaptator is the right one? it doesn't look like the commodore one, that is more than just straight connections from one connector to the other. there is some ttl chip in the como thing to adjust levels.

Except those that can be mode promoted.

Aïe! that's not good at all

that adaptator need to be buffered to keep levels to the right voltage and prevent burning denise (or lisa) chip. that's that absence of buffer that prevents your amiga from booting when the lcd is connected.

avoid absolutely that bad adaptators! and try to get a Commodore one instead.
