Title: Miro Highscore Loop-cable Pinout
Post by RaVeNsClaw on 20.08.08 at 22:29:11
I've got 2 Miro Highscore cards, but I don't have the loop-cable.   :-/
Does anyone have the wiring diagram for this cable, or the pinout of the vga-in connector on the miro card?  :)

I've got also the Skywell 8MB Voodoo, but I really want to get those cards working... ::)

Has really nobody that Pinout?  :'(

Witch transistor on the Voodoo is switching between the 2d graphics-board and the Voodoo?

Would it be possible to use the Card like those Quantum3D Voodoo2's witch have no loop-input? My Screen has got 2 VGA Ports...

3dfx Voodoo1 and Voodoo2 don't use a switch, they are used when a 3D game use them, so you can link one VGA port to the primary graphic card and the other VGA port to the Voodoo card and when you start a game just switch between imputs from the monitor.

I wonder if the Hiscore 1 Cable works on a Hiscore 2 because I recently bought one with 12MB

Yes, it works, even more, it works with the canopus pure 3d and pure 3d II. So that one cable is compatible with miro v1,v2 and canopus v1,v2.

Perfect! I will dismantle it (because I donīt have a pinout) and make 5 or so cables, to have enough spare

Use a multimeter with "continuity check" setting (the BEEP setting). :)

Then you can check the cable WITHOUT ripping it apart. ;)
