Topic: CRT Emudriver: HD 7870 DVI-I EDID Help

-Windows 10
-Sapphire HD 7870 Dual-X OC
-CRT Emudriver & CRT Tools 2.0 beta 15 (Crimson 16.2.1 for GCN* cards) for Windows 7/8/10 64-bits

Attempting to use the DVI-I (white port) with no success. Just a white screen when powering PVM, which then slowly fades to nothing.

Connection setup: DVI-I -> [DVI -> VGA adapter] -> [VGA -> BNC cable] -> PVM

I am not sure i am selecting the correct EDID Output, difficult for me to tell from the output list.

I have tried all combinations of EDID output emulation, composite sync.

User modes generate and install with no issue.

Able to use HD 4650 just fine on same system.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have the exact same problem, did you manage to fix this?

To enable EDID emulation through the analog DVI-I, you must select Analog_0-VGA. I know this may sound counterintuitive, but from the video card point of view, you have two different outputs through one connector. If you select Digital_7-DVI-I, it'll configure the output as digital instead of analog.
