Is CGA composite support actually added? Can't get it to work on my unit
Picked it up off Ebay, perhaps it's a pirate/clone, not sure. It is marked version 2.0 and look sidentical to the 2.0 versions I've seen elsewhere.
In any event, running a Composite-mode game and pressing RESET simply resets the unit to default settings rather than enabling composite mode.
Am I missing something here?
I can't answer for third parties I don't know which fpga code is it using. If it uses my master from https://github.com/lfantoniosi/mce2vga then the reset should activate the composite artifact when in CGA mode hi-res (black and white)

That's what I thought.
Any way to get a firmware version or information display?
Picked up one of those usb blasters to try to update to your specific code if it lets me...
yes you would need a usb blaster-ii take care with cheap fake ones they have fake rtfi and could crash your computer, i had one of these
install quartus-ii and try the firmware

THanks for the help. It LOOKS like an authentic one but of course good fakes always do.
Monochrome mode is also squashed vertically, too wide horizontally, and has a blue background. I'm starting to have my doubts...
Wow this has been a nightmare. I picked up a usb blaster V2 from Amazon but it's an original usb blaster apparantly and Quartus' supplied drivers aren't digitally signed so none of my machines can install them due to secure boot.
I can't even find what looks to be a usb blaster II for sale on amazon/ebay/etc.
Didn't expect it to be this complicated!

Try disabling driver signature forcing during reboot - simply hold shift while clicking reboot from start menu, then select troubleshoot and restart, during reboot you will have an option to disable driver signing enforcement.
