The color setting modulates the chroma signal into the output, while the mono setting doesn't. If you look at the IIgs composite on a monochrome monitor, you can see the difference in the monochrome vs color output. Is there any other setting that may cause this? Alternative display mode maybe? Still I'd advise him to double check this setting though. He says he gets color (but output is not correct or the colors are undesirable).

Still haven't figured out why it does this. If his is doing the same thing as mine is with the composite it will do it regardless if it is setup for monochrome or color. One place I do agree with the other poster on is testing the monitor with another known good source (because someone could of messed with your settings on that monitor).Īre you set up for color or monochrome in the control panel? Well could you post some pictures and we can try to give you some hints on if there is a problem. Are these original Apple II games or Apple IIgs games? How does it handle text only (when there is no graphics on screen)? White or a green, purple, white mix? Is this an early Apple IIgs (maybe a bad VGC chip)?Ĭould be, I know the composite tends to make everything look like crap and it makes all the colors over saturated. The composite output isn't the best on the GS. It's been a while, but what happens if you set it to something like blue, save and restart? Will you be able to see that it is blue in some place other then the control panel? It's just the control panel I think it does that. I think if you do a self test it will cycle the background colors and boarder colors and it should display fine. Other then that the color should be fine (well as fine as it could be using a crappy output like composite).

It wouldn't do this I'm sure if it was connected to an RGB monitor. If you mean background color and board color, then that is normal is seams for composite video.
