Issue with 1040STFM & XRGB-2 plus

[Cjug]

I tried the following video connection:

 

Atari 1040STFM->Retrogamingcables ST SCART cable->XRGB-2 plus->CRT VGA monitor

 

The image I got was fine but with vertical lines accross it (photo below). Anyone had this problem? Any ideas to have it solved?

Assuming the ST is working ok with the SCART connection to a crt tv, it's probably the non standard video output of the ST that's causing the issue. Searching this forum for R431 resistor will yield a result that might help you. I haven't tried it personally but the user who posted has.

Normally bad ram which causes odd problems like that.

No, I found out that the problem is with the computer, because I tested it with a SC1224 monitor and it showed the same bars.

It might be what you say.

Just in case anyone finds this thread thru google or whatever, i have a XRGB 2+, my SCART connection is fine on it. it has to be a problem with OP's computer.
