Exclamation VooDoo Display issue

My system is and A4000d in an Elbox tower, Cyberstorm 060, mediator board, and a Voodoo5500 card.
My problem is I can not get the VooDoo card to display on my LCD monitor, I do have native screen mode. I have reinstalled Picasso96 and followed all the directions for renaming the monitor file in devs:Monitors. Still nothing.

Please help

As I remember from setting up my Voodoo 3000 card via a Mediator in an A1200 Tower... I wasn't able to use the re-named Voodoo monitor driver in System/Devs/Monitors until I removed all other monitor drivers from that area, in my case the PAL driver.

Not quite sure why this was the case but as soon as I did this the previously configured Voodoo driver (configured via P96 set-up) came to life and up came my display on a flat panel monitor.

During the initial set up and test phase of my Tower I had an Amiga monitor also set up for use just in case I had to boot back up into an Amiga display to make adjustments and changes to the configuration... of course I had to get the PAL driver back in place before I could do this... I do recall that the set up of the Voodoo was a pain in the rear... Once it was up and running it was very reliable and the display was excellent.

I remember thinking that I should have written down the process as to how I achieved the completed set up but if I am honest I think it was more by luck than judgement that I got it to work...!

Have you attached your Voodoo into your mediator within Picasso96Mode and also created any screenmodes?
