also I see on BBOAH for the sd on the ebay auction:
"The card is only suitable for 15Khz modes (NTSC, PAL, Euro36) and it can't process ECS/AGA screenmodes. It does however have software controllable refresh rates at up to 100Hz. SuperHighRes modes are possible but every second pixel in a row is omitted." I don't think it would be good for my 2MB ECS A2000 lol |

if it's just the ground line, and no chip fried, that can be easily fixed.
I don't think any scandoubler for the A2000 can process ECS modes. They're supposed to be VGA compatible anyway. But ECS modes suck cause you have to stick with 4 colors for a decent resolution. If you want 16 colors or something, you have to decrease the resolution to the size of a matchbox. Your best bet is a scandoubled/de-interlaced PAL/NTSC mode I guess. Or a RTG card. Why do you have all those Zorro slots anyway ? :-P |

ok, let me put it this way, why do you think this scandoubler would not be good for your ECS A2000 ?

now I see it better... BBOAH says it cannot process doublescan modes, right? I don't care about them lol

yes exactly that. ECS modes are already doubled, so it's not necessary to doubled them again.
I think it can be easily patched with a wire. Even a starter can do it with a soldering iron (yes come on, you can do it ).

you think?
the monitor won't "power-on" from the scandoubler, is it possible that because the wire in on the air it does not work OK? because it is not cut... |

the best way to know is to use a continuity tester and see if it still conducts. Or you can use a voltmeter to see if there's ground on the connector pins.
